Apparently on my 8IDX i845 board I need to update my BIOS to get a new nVidia AGP card to work. I can't find one publicly. Is my only option to buy an apdate from Award for $49.99 or is there an update somewhere else that I am (hopefully) missing? I have searched thoroughly, high and low and...

When I backup a SATA hard drive on the Intel controller to a hard drive on IDE 1, using Drive Image, the copy speed runs about 900 to 1400 MB/m. When I backup the SATA drive on Intel to a SATA drive on Silicon Image, the copy speed is about 100 to 160 MB/m. I'd prefer to copy SATA to SATA...
