Okay, so to start off, I have the regular AA8XE motherboard, a P4 640, 1GB (2x512MB) of Crucial Ballistix DDR-5300, and a Vantec 400watt PSU. So, I plug in my SATA HDD, I boot, and I get stuck at 7F on the GURU motherboard P.O.S.T. light thing. I'm gonna update my BIOS and see if that helps. Also, it won't boot off my IDE drive for some reason ether. It just loads the BIOS screen that shows the Abit logo and the Intel EE logo, then the screen goes black except for a little purple logo in the upper left-hand corner. What in the heck could the problem be? The BIOS recongizes my DVD-burner as the master and the IDE HDD as the slave which is perfectly fine with me. Now, if only I could get it to load Windows.
