Hi ,
I recenetly formated my computer and now i am having an issue to install my Western Digital SATA 120gb drive
i have two hard drives
one WD IDE 120GB and the other is WB SATA 120gb
before the format , i remember that somehow i installed them both , at later state i used the administrative tools in windows and i saw the sata there , so i just formated it and it worked after that
now i have an issue to install the SATA drive
i plugged it in, windows recognized it and said that it found a RAID CONTROLLER, and prompted me to install some drivers ,
now i don't have any drivers for my WD SATA HDD ,
i tried downloading some from WD's website but all of them , windows refused to install , saying that they are incompatible at all.
i am thinking that this is the only issue that i need to solve
i have ASUS P4S800D Mainboard with two SATA plugs ,
i don't use any PCI controller card since my MB supports SATA and IDE
but i just don't know what to do now.
how can i make them both work, IDE is the only one working so far.
I don't have a floppy drive nor do i have the drivers for the SATA , as i recall that , i never got the drivers either when i bought the SATA drive.
i do recall that long ago i done something , some exe file in windows folder that created some drivers for the SATA from scratch , but i don't remember what that was and where.
Could you give me some pointers how to make it work?
Thanks again.
