You are experiencing the SATA corruption issue.
It's well documented, and has been fixed. Go and check out some forums.

1. Flash the very latest "SATA Enhanced" UBER BIOS for your board, from

2. Reformat all your drives
3. Reinstall WinXP, with the .29 SATA drivers - get em from me at

4. Problem solved

Many thanks for the advices.
The mobo is the A7N8X Deluxe.
Silicon driver is .33.
The Pc and WD Raptor run fine.
I will try the Uber Bios and Silicon .29 driver.
Thanks again.


No problem
