Working with a computer where any sata drivers crash the machine, giving a blue screen with words something like "driver_irql_not_less_than_or_equal_to" (it may be different, the screen is up for such a short time before system restarts). No software loaded except for XP Pro, all updates, and nVidia unified drivers 5.10 (latest from their website). Loading XP onto a regular ide drive works great, but hook the sata drive up even though it's not booting, causes that bsod during bootup. Tried out a Promise sata pci card, and same results! Once the drivers were installed within XP, got the same bsod.
Looks like a motherboard RMA, but I'd rather try everything else before that, as MSI motherboard rma's take ~3-4 weeks from the day it's sent until I'd get it back.
