I have two(2) Asus motherboards.
One is a P4C800 Deluxe and the other is a P4C800l-E Deluxe.
I am using the exact same model Seagate SATA drive on both motherboards.
In the BIOS parameters of each motherboard there is a parameter in the section for the setup of the hard drives named 32-bit transfer.
On the P4C800 Deluxe board, if I attempt to set this parameter to enabled as opposed to disabled (which is the default), it will cause ALL of the BIOS parameters to go back to the defaults and I have to go back and reset them all to be what I want.
On the P4C800-E Deluxe board, if I attempt to set this parameter to enable, it will accept it and go ahead and let me install the O/S with the 32 bit transfer turn on.
Why would one board allow the use of this 32 bit transfer while using the very same hard drive model and the other board not ?
I have talked to ASUS about this and they say to leave them diabled on BOTH motherboards, but they seem unable to explain to my why these can not be set consistently.
Thanks.
