Thanks for all the help and info. Update: In case someone does a search with
a similar problem I finally got ahold of someone at Asus who had a clue.
They said that AHCI controller is not supported for AMD chipset with Win XP,
Vista or current version for Win &(no drivers). So when I turned it off in
bios of course it worked. There are drivers for them on their website. To
incorporate you could slipstream, or use a floppy for XP since USB wont work
however it will for Vista and Win 7.

According to the tech guy, unless you need a SCSI type drive the performance
will not be any different. And I know some say that Hot Swapping is affected
without AHCI, however for eSATA with this board it is not due to the Marvell
controller. For internal hot swapping I did not ask, since it did not apply
to me.

Thanks again.
