I have a SATA (non-RAID) WD Raptor set up and booting XP Pro. I want to add an IDE (WD Caviar) as a slave for storage.
I set the IDE jumper to master.
When I connect the IDE drive I can see it in the BIOS as my "Primary IDE Master" with my "First SATA Master" also there.
In "Boot Device Priority" I have my DVD drive 1st, and Hard Disk 2nd (I can't choose which hard disk, just "Hard Disk").
In the "Hard Disk Drives" selection under the "Boot" tab, I have my SATA first and IDE second.
When I start it up it still tries to boot off my IDE drive. If I hit F8 and open the boot menu, I can choose to boot from my SATA and everything is fine, I just have to do this every time I boot.
In Disk Management inside XP, my SATA is "Disk 1", while my IDE is "Disk 0". How can I switch this so it will automatically boot from the SATA?
