SATA & IDE multi-drive config
test pc hardware meets/exceeds Vista requirements: 2 SATA hdds, 2 IDE hdds,
2 IDE DVDs Vista [b. 5384] would not load on IDE drive, so I loaded it on the other SATA drive [XP Pro is on the other], BIOS sees all drives, when booting into Vista, none of the IDE hard drives are recognised, but the DVDs are. I really need the other IDE drives to be able to completely test Vista before it hits mainstream... haven't found a BIOS setting that will change this... any ideas? |

SATA & IDE multi-drive config
I installed on top of XPSP2 and all HDDs (2 xIDE, 2xSATA Raid0, 1x SATA) are
accessible. I'd try to mount the IDE HDDs in Computer Management/Disk Management.
