problems with ECS kt600 and sata drive

[Joshhignos]

alright im building a computer for my girflfriend and i get and ECS kt600 motherboard and an sata hard drive.
i read the motherboard manual on how to install an os onto the sata hd and when i go to get the drivers off the cd rom they are not there and i cant find them on the manufacturers website so can anyone tell me how to install windows 2000 on the sata hd or tell me where the drivers i need are


thanks,
josh

I looked around and I THINK this is what your looking for:
http://www.techspot.com/driver.../file/information/3437
It's for the VT8237 and your board uses that. But looking through the release notes (there is a link on that page) made me not so sure. Sounded kind of like these are the raid drivers. I guess you could try it, I don't think it will hurt anything. But I really recomend taking one last look through that support cd. They are on there somewhere, lots of ppl (in reviews and stuff) have said they found them on the cd.

I have the same board in one of my secondary machines, never had a problem.
