I have it set up the way you wrote and is detected by Highpoint and Windows but it does not show up as a seperate drive volume.. ie I cannot find it in "My Computer" as a seperate disk. It shows up in Device mangler and in the Highpoint Raid software prog...??? I am about to give up. Any more...

I will let you know how it turns out....

I see what you are saying. I have 4 channels on the Highpoint 404. So you want me to set the first two 60 gig drives together on 1 IDE ribbon to channel 1 or can I leave it as I wrote above and set the 120 gig HD jumpers to slave on channel 3. Is their any benefit to keeping the two 60 gigs...

Thanks to all here. I will try connecting all drives to the Highpoint Raid card. I appreciate all your help here. Will let you know it turns out. Thanks again guys. Just a question before I start the process. Do you mean setting the jumper on the 120 gig HD to slave. Just want to be sure...

Thank you for replying. I have an Asus A7N8x Deluxe mobo. When I plugged the 120 gig HD into the primary IDE channel xp recognizes it but it does not recognize it as a seperate drive volume... (ie cannot find it when I click on "my computer:)... would I probably be better off just using the 60...

Nobody know this??? Linkies???

Can someone explain the difference in plain english (user manual confusing me...) what the the two positions the jumper can take do. I do not want to run any raid just be able to stick both my DVD drives into them (Have adapter and cables already) so I can free up an IDE channel to stick another...

It was my first time putting a processor in ANY mobo and it seemed a little too much force was needed to snap the lever back down on the A7N8X Dlx. But it is running fine so I just thought it was supposed to be that way. If i had read this post before I installed I probably would have returned...

Nevermind.... got it.... heh heh...

I have the before mentioned mobo I have just installed and win xp pro recognizes both ethernet ports but when I plug in rj45 I get nothing. I have stuck my NIC card in also and it works just fine. I have been told this is the place to go for networking answers. I sure hope someone here can help...
