Windows thinks my primary SATA HDD is a removable device

Just got a A64 3500+ on a ASUS A8N-E (NForce 4 Ultra). So I installed windows XP SP2 on my primary drive (200 Gb Maxtor SATA), and now I have in the right corner of Windows the "safe removal of hardware"-icon (direct translation from swedish hehe). The one you get when you plug in an USB device and such. It says it can safely remove my harddrive.
I would like to remove this "feature". I did not have this problem on my old Nforce 2 rig, with Windows XP SP1.

How can I fix this?

Yeah and NF4 I believe is the first chipset that would do this. Others with SATA won't have this show up.
