    Ah man had the exact same thing..

    Set the promise controller to work in IDE and not Raid in the Bios.

    In the mean time, put the hard drive on the SATA 1 or 2 and not the Raid 1 or 2 on the promise controller. Use the Raid 1 and 2 when you have the first 2 used up.

    The message is normal when you have the Promise controller set to work in Raid.

    If you you have it in S-ATA 1, the Promise controller shouldn't be affecting you.

    Is there two sets of S-ATA plugs on your board, maye about 3 inches apart from each other?
    Ok i set it to ide but got message no device found bios not installed

    Thats fine, just means there is no drives installed on it..

    I had a similar problem a while back with my ASUS K8V deluxe motherboard: ASUS K8V Deluxe & Samsung SATA drive
    You might want to do a search on boards.ie for SATA. I came across this thread which may be of help too.
