Help
Running Win 7 on an Asus P7P55D-E LX and two SATA drives. I have a 500gig IDE drive with a bunch of movies on it an want to put it in. When I install it, the system wants to boot from it and of course gives the no OS error. not from the SATA that has the OS. I have tried all the jumper settings on it and the system still chooses the IDE drive. How do I get this set up to run both SATA and IDE drives?

Seems to me there should be an option in the BIOs that allows you to choose which hard drive to boot from first, probably under boot devices, or in the hardware management.
Primary system: Motherboard: ASUS M4A89GTD PRO/USB3, Processor: AMD Phenom II x4 945, Memory: 8 gigs of Patriot G2 DDR3 1600, Video: ASUS ATI 4890 and a Saphire 4890 in Crossfire, Storage: 1 WD 500 gig HD, 1 Hitachi 500 gig HD, and Power supply: Coolermaster 750 watt, OS: Windows 7 ultimate 64 bit.
Media Center: Motherboard: Gigabyte mp61p-S3, Processor: AMD Athlon 64 x2 6000+, Memory: 6 gigs Patriot DDR2 800, Video: Saphire 4850, Storage: 500 gig Hitachi, PSU: OCZ Fatal1ty 550 watt modular PSU, OS: Windows 7 Ultimate.
