Enable
Serial ATA controller then change
Sis serial ATA mode.
This is set to IDE,
the other option is Raid , tried both but failed miserably, I collect my old HDD with XP and that recognizes the drive and i can cop stuff to it , I know very very interesting

Are you sure your BIOS appears exactly like above Simulator and there is no option to control
Sis OnChip PCI Devices sis or something ???There must be something to control Sis-964 South Bridge in BIOS.Any how this chip support Serial ATA 1.0 Specification with transfer rate 150MB/s SATA not like to days HDD's 300MB/s SATA2.It could be compatibility issue check for jumper inserted in HDD for 150MB/s operation.May be Your motherboard won't accept SATA2 hard drive, it will only accept SATA1 .As the compatibility issue arises, so jumper the drive into SATA1 mode i.e Limit data transfer rate to 1.5Gbits per second(SATA1 mode) by inserting jumper as shown in figure.
Well Almost like that it has the SIS SATA settings and like I said above it is set to IDE and the other option is RAID,
If this was a jumper setting issue I am assuming that XP would not recognize the drive either correct...
the weirdest thing is that when I ran the Vista util t check if all my hardware was compatible it said yes and didnt show me any errors or anything of that sort and now it does not recognize the SATA drive the network card it says loaded with code 10- device not functioning correctly, the audio device is not recognized, i've just about had it with vista,
i'll do a clean install of XP sp 3 or 2 whatever I can find on torrents on the 40 GB IDE and use the 360 Seagate as the data / program drive or should i use the 360 Seagate as the primary for the OS ?
