Default SATA drive causes blue screen of death

My boot/system drive is SCSI and my multimedia drive is SATA. Most but not
all the time when I start the system with the SATA setup in Auto mode, I get
the blue screen of death immediately when my username and password are being
checked. When I don't get the BSOD, personal settings load next, and the
windows startup continues okay. My motherboard is GA-8KNXP Ultra. This is
somewhat puzzling as I haven't found any workarounds. When I boot with an
IDE drive with SATA setup in Auto mode, Windows startup goes normally
witihout BSODs. Anybody know why BSODs might be occurring with the SCSI
boot drive. The SCSI drive uses Windows 2000 and the IDE drive uses Windows
XP.
