Has anyone been able to boot an IDE HDD from the red ITE ports or is this an impossibilty because Windows needs the driver loaded first? I installed a spare HDD on the primary ITE PATA port, but it hangs and then restarts when it reaches the splash screen when trying to boot to that drive.
I am also getting some kind of warning on the ITE boot scan that goes by so fast, I can't read it...something about U/66 is the only thing I can make out. The drive shows up fine in XP when I boot from the main drive (on the SATA1 port), but it DOESN'T show up in BIOS in IDE config on the Main screen (but is on the Boot menu for selecting boot order)?
It's not for anything major...I just want to have an extra drive that I can keep a clean install of Windows on for benching. I can do that by making it a primary on the blue connector, but I'd like it to not have to share bandwidth with the CDRW that's already on there...
Thanks!
