I have a problem with an A8N-SLI Premium.
I have 4 SATA HD's connected under the Nvidia Controller and 2 more under the Silicon controller + 1 SATA CD Rom.

I am using a 20 Pin PS, a thermaltake 560W PurePower and I have had some drives dissapear at times. (Between boots)

However, the biggest problem I have is that I cannot get the 2 HD's under the silicon controller to be detected by windows or in the bios. The weird thing is that the SATA CD drive under the same controller is detected by windows (XP Pro). (When installing XP, I loaded both raid drivers for the Nvidia and Silicon controllers by pressing F6)

I am not running any type of raid functions and have not made any changes to the bios.

Can anybody please help?

TIA!
