I have noticed that things have been taking longer than they used to to load on my computer since I formatted it. I have two HD's - one with Windows and programs installed on it, the other one is basically a backup of music, videos, etc. I checked the device manager and one of the IDE / ATA devices has the yellow exclamation mark next to it. When I went to properties I got this:

Both my HD's are SATA, and I have installed all the drivers from my MoBo CD (Gigabyte K8NF-9 nForce4). One thing I thought it could be was that on the Gigabyte website, they have two versions of the SATA drivers you need to install when you boot from the Windows CD to install Windows - Revision 1 and Revision 2. I don't know if choosing one over the other would make a difference (since they're both for the same MoBo) but I thought I had better mention it.
Thanks for any help
