A real quick question..
Should I Let my Bios handle the hardware(i.e. the Plug and Play option in the bios).
Or should let Windows(XP) Handle the hardware?.:D
WXP and W2K will override the bios management with ACPI enabled. so no matter how you have it set, windows will re-arrange your devices after posting.
however i recommend you to set it to "no" (plug n play OS) if you have APIC mode enabled in BIOS.
btw, i really mean APIC, not a typo.
if there is no option for the APIC mode in BIOS, or if you have it disabled then just leave the option the way you prefer.

Go to the adimistration tools and search Disk management.
Right click on the device ->Change drive letter..
