I am wanting to reinstall Windows and having a problem getting the SATA drivers installed on the MOBO so that Windows recognizes that I have a SATA drive. (Unlike other boards, the ABIT doesn't have built in support for Windows recognition.) The floppy that came with the MOBO is useless and is an older version anyway (1.30) and the latest drivers (1.32) seem only to cause error messages when I'm inserting the disk during Windows setup (after pressing F6), stating "txtsetup.oem caused an unexpected error (512)..." I've tried copying the newer files onto a floppy seperately..like one disc with only the 3112 driver and one with the 3114 driver, and those sem to work at first but then Windows says it can't find the drive and quits. The XP version I'm using is Pro, Service Pack 1.
What is the difference between the Silicon 3112 driver and the 3114 anyway? Which should I be installing if I only have one SATA drive and no other drives (ie not RAID)? And where can I get working copy of a driver?
Thanks,
MM
