You basically want the onboard SATA drives to trump the add-in SCSI card. Look for something in the BIOS about boot priority I think. It's so hard to guess though, without knowing what one you have. > Q: Is there any way to accomplish what I set out to do? > > Thanks, especially if you read this far. > In this case, if it was me, and I know it's not what you want to hear, but I'd just start clean. Create your NTFS partition large enough to hold all your stuff you want on there, instead of having two, and then get that working and then install FC3 with your SCSI drives hooked up.
