Here's a link indicating that Windows XP w/SP2 does NOT have SATA built into the driver set, clearly contridicting what the ASUS technician told...
Well, I'm back to where I was before, which is a good thing. I must have boot the boot schedule back to floppy, hd, dvd a couple days ago. I...
So I spoke to an Asus tech and he seems to think that the SATA drivers should be built into Windows with Service Pack 2. Further, now I can't...
Well, gotta say I have no idea what that means.
Guys: I finally got to check the Asus CD and the only thing I can find that seems to make sense is under the "Make Disk" tab: The options...
Fair enough, but I mean, really.... couldn't MS put something into the newly minted DVDs of fresh software? Would've thought this was in SP1 at...

Oh, and it's not heat, I've been doing all this with the case open. Plus I have temperature monitors that show a-okay.
