Hi all
I installed Windows 7 on my new Corsair F60 last night (well at 1am this morning since I initially tried to install from a USB stick since I thought it would be faster, but it wasn't so I had to burn Windows to a DVD and install that way), but now when I boot I can't just boot straight into the new Windows installation.
My config is:
MSI P35 Neo2
Drive mode set to AHCI
1 X WD 500GB with Windows XP
1 X WD 500GB with Windows 7
1 X Corsair F60 with Window 7
When I set the F60 as the 1st boot device it still presents me with a menu where I have to select which Windows 7 I want to load (the one on the WD or the one on the F60). If I remove all hard drives from the boot list and set to only boot from the F60, it tries to boot from the Windows XP drive and fails since that Windows isn't AHCI enabled.
Any ideas how I can get it to just boot straight into the F60?
I am thinking of swapping the cable to the XP drive to the F60 since maybe in AHCI mode boot priority doesn't work?
