Hello All,
My first post here, so I hope I'm in the right forum. I did spend some time looking around first. I am building my first all SATA desktop and need some help. I have an MSI K9N6SGM-V Mobo, AMD Athlon 64 X2 3600+ CPU, Seagate 320GIG SATA HD, Lite-ON 20X SATA DVDRW, 2GIG PC4200 DDR ram. I have a proper case , power supply, cooling fan (AM2), and a KFA2 GeForce 7300 LE PCIe 256MB video card. Can someone explain briefly or point me to a link on the initial setup of SATA based devices? I assembled everything, powered on, expecting Bios like with IDE, but I got nothing. It is running, fans, drives, everything, but monitor says " no signal" from what I gthered on here, there is a special driver to allow the SATA devices to be recognized? Once I get that far, I should be OK. This is my learning system on SATA. Any help at all would really be appreciated! Thanks in advance!
