Hi, I have a few items that either don't work at all, or don't work out of the box. Doesn't work at all (as far as I've been able to do anything about; ahci on my 2 SATA drives Doesn't work out of the box; DVD+rw drive & DVD-ROM drive I have to set the kernel options irqpoll noapic I get the drive confused message, and integrity of writes is very bad My motherboard is an ASUS P5W DH As much as I hate Windoze, it works without intervention on the DVD's, I haven't tested the ahci. Any ideas? Thanks Todd
