A8N-SLI Deluxe SATA3 Problem



I build a system using this board and an eval copy of Windows XP Pro 64.
Downloaded all the latest 64 bit drivers from Asus and Nvidia.

As part of the initial build, Windows was loaded on a old 15GB drive (PATA)
attached to the IDE1 as Master, and everything went very well. Then after
receiving a SATA Western Digital Raptor, the operating system was copied to
the Raptor and the system booted perfectly using the new drive. The system
recognized the new drive and then indicated a reboot was required. This is
as expected, all well and good.

But then I noticed a small green arrow/device icon on the right side of the
Task Bar. This usually appears when a USB Flash Drive is plugged into a USB
port. So I right-clicked on the icon and the dialogue box displayed the
Western Digital Hard Drive as a removable hard drive!

Has anyone else see this? I suppose it is probably a driver problem which
may be solved over time as the 64 bit version of Windows evolves.

Please let me know if others have seen this problem, and if so were they
able to solve it.

Thanks.
