Hello.
I have ordered, and will be getting soon, my new PC which in brief consists of :
a8n-e
3700+ san diego
ocz platinum rev 2 1gb ram
and for my HDs
seagate baracuda 200gb and a 74gb raptor
Aside from flashing the bios to the latest beta 1004. What other drivers will I need? I heard I may have to provide sata drivers on a floppy disk for XP 64-bit to recognize my sata drives. Is this true? If so could anyone be so kind to tell me where I can download the needed drivers and what version I'm looking for.
Also will I need a disk controller? Will I need to update my chipset drivers as well? I'm a bit confused about all this. And a bit noobish too obviously. I'd love for a pro to help me out and tell me exactly what I need.
And yes I really want to use XP 64-bit
thanks in advance
