OK, I'm an idiot. I didn't write down my bios settings before flashing to new BIOS, and can't seem to get the right combination to have all of my drives showing up properly again.

here is what I have:

IDE1(master) - 180 Gig Desktar - boot device, WinXP (C:)
IDE1(slave) - 180 Gig Desktar - tmp/swap (E:)

SATA1 - WD Raptor, part of RAID volume (F:)
SATA2 - WD Raptor, part of RAID volume (F:)

SATA3 - Plextor Premium, using serillel 2 adapter (was D:)


After flashing to 23, I can't get the BIOS back to a config where the Plextor still shows up. Hmm, looking at that, I'm wondering why I didn't put the second deskstar on IDE2 as a master when I built the rig. I think I had another drive there. I suppose I could move the plextor to IDE2 now, and it'd be ok, if I had to.

I can get the BIOS back to where the boot sequence messages look like before, but it hangs after the DMI message, which would seem to indicate it isn't finding the right boot device. I think i've tried just about every combination in that section, lol.
