GA K8NXP-SLI SATA bios...?
will gigabyte be upgrading the bios on this mobo soon so it can boot to
sata...? i've posted this question a while ago but no-one really had a clue on the subject. basically windowsXP install can see sata disks but there's no way with the bios on this board to select sata or scsi as a boot option, so windows can never boot regardless of whether it installs or not. the only option in the bios for hard disk boot order is "bootable add-in cards". we managed to get scsi showing up in the boot order but that was in jbod single-raid mode and would blue-screen every windows install. so like i can't understand how a manufacturer could be so incompetent. do they really not have a clue about components which go on their own product..? if if a component is from a 3rd party gigabyte is still totally responsible for testing to see that the said component doesn't render the features on their motherboard useless. |
