I get a PXE boot failure message but I think it is because the drive and controller are not being recognized. Here’s the spec’s:
ASUS A7N8X-E w/ Uberbios R1013
Phoenix Award bios
on board sata control not being used (kept failing)
VIA sata controller card in PCI slot #5
Seagate Barracuda 160 connected to controller
NO IDE drive installed
***Used Seagate drive cloning software to xfer my system from IDE drive to SATA. Windows recognized SATA drive if IDE was still attached. When I tried to remove IDE to use the larger faster SATA drive system would not boot to drive.****
no SATA selection in bios, tried booting with SCSI boot enabled and choosing HDD 0, HDD 1 – no success
tried booting with RAID enabled (choice is RAID or SCSI) with HDD 0, and HDD 1 – no success
Any suggestions?? I don’t use the onboard sata because it fails after setting up drive with WinXP CD. Repeated failueres led me to believe the onboard sata control was fried. Now I wonder if it is something else.
