After trying to get my SATA 150 drive to work with my asrock conroexfire sata2 mobo, it turns out to be sata 300 only. All this after i'd bought the drive and emailed asrock who ensured me it was compatible.

I pop the motherboard cd in the drive and what does the message say?

Conroexfire esata2 is not serial ATA motherboard.

Well asrock won't be getting much more of my money that's for sure. Know your product next time me thinks...
 
well i can't get the drive to be recognised at all. when i try and just install windows it says no drive, and then when i put the mobo disk in it says this is not a serial ATA compatible board!

what now?
 
so...

put in the windows cd for installation

When asked if i want to install windows i press F6 instead and put the motherboard cd rom in the drive

should be fine?
