Alright.

Well, I have tryed to put it into the red SATA port SATA_RAID2 which did'nt seem to work. I have tryed putting it into SATA2 I have went into the Bios and have enabled anything witht he name SATA in it that I came across last time i checked when its in the red port SATA_RAID2 its not detected by the bios or windows but when its in the black port SATA2 the windows bootscreen hangs there and idles and never loads I don't know why i was told i might need some raid drivers off my asus cd But I dont know which ones. The drivers that I have avaliable to me that i think might have soemthing to do with it are as follows.

Silicone Image RAID Driver and Utility [Installed]

And for the drivers below I would have to copy them to a disk and compress the files in ISO and boot up with it. vvvvvvv

nVidia nForce 32Bit SATA RAID Driver nVidia 64Bit SATA RAID Driver Silicone Image 32Bit RAID Driver Silicone Image 32Bit SATA Driver Silicone Image 64Bit RAID Driver Silicone Image 64Bit SATA Driver
