Re: Building my own PC
Now you can play a game....
For each megabyte of data you install of software, drink a shot of vodka.
Or maybe thats not such a good idea if installing many gigabytes.

Re: Building my own PC
I'm glad I installed XP Pro on my IDE HDD rather than my S-ATA drive from the problems you had Rammy, I don't even have a floppy drive!

Rammy only had issues installing his raid configuration, not the fact it was sata over ide  as they both operate in the same way singely

There wasn't a problem with the sata or raid setup, the problem came from windows setup neglecting to tell me that it had actually loaded the raid drivers..........
