   SATA Woes

   I've been struggling to configure a new box Asus A8N Premium MoBo. This is   
   my first encounter w/SATA drives (not raided)  I'm used to creating a   
   partition to install Windows on and everything behave just fine.   
   Well XP has no SATA  support. I've used MaxBlast  and did an F6 during the   
   last attempt to use the native drivers.   
      
   Nothing I have run into will let me repartition or remove a partition   
   because the OS is on it.   
      
   Only the partition is recognized and the rest of the drive is ignored   
   resulting in everything being jammed on 4 Gigs   
      
   Is there a workaround?   
   Is this the right group?   
      
   TIA  etc
