I recently bought a Western Digital 250 gig SATAII hard drive and a new motherboard ,the Gigabyte Ga-K8N-Ultra-SLI. Anyway, I want to kn:evil;ow how to install a single SATA drive in the SATAII port (Im not using the Silicon Image controller). I know how to physically install it, but IM clueless as to what to my BIOS options should be and when I enter the RAID configuration, my only options are for how to set up the drive in a RAID array. I dont want to set the drive up in a RAID array. I want to set up the drive as a single hard drive and install Windows XP on it. I do have the necessary disk so that when I enter F6, I can install those drivers. Even when I do use the F6 option, windows setup still does not recognize the Hard drive, but yet it is recognozed when I enter into the RAID configuration utility at start up.

Does anyone have any ideas? the gigabyte manual is NO help at all.
