Primary IDE or not?

Im a bit out of my depth here so please bare with me

Numpty subcontracted MESH engineer came to visit yesterday to resolve a graphics problem i have. To cut a long story short he replaced the MOBO and installed a fresh copy of XP pro on the second drive.

Now i have a couple of iritations and concerns about the BIOS settings being right and things plugged into the right sockets


1. The hard drives are not on the primary IDE controller, the two DVD drives are on this controller and the hard drives are on the third IDE controller. Should i swap them??

2. They are both SATA drives, same size same make how should they be configured to get the best performance. I dont need raid and im not too keen on having files split across drives. Everytime i try to access the C drive now there seems to be a lag that wasnt there before

3. Final issue that has always been there. I keep getting this error in the event log
