Does your bios detect the drive? If it doesn't the read the manual because we had similar issues with this board and windoseXplease here on the proline production line. We are the agents for Msi SA so if you could give me more info on your bios setup I could possible help. I will in the mean time send my contacts at msi mail requesting the linux drivers for your chipset. You could possible also get them from viarena.com I will check for it might take some time though. Later...
