Intel 865PE motherboard SATA hard drive How to use GHOST

  
                  In general, the SATA hard disk motherboards are all I865PE (North Bridge) + ICH5R (South Bridge) chipsets, but due to the limitations of the ICH5R South Bridge chip itself, one of the IDE channels is used under WIN9X, WINNT, and DOS systems. It will not work, which is why the system will stop responding after we start GHOST, because GHOST can't judge which set of IDEs is available in the system. After we know the reason, we can prescribe the right medicine. Generally, the BIOS of the motherboard of the 865 provides an option to shield a group of IDE channels, so that the system only recognizes two sets of IDE channels. The following is an example of the P4P800 motherboard to explain the operation method: (The following methods are all CD-ROM startup. Mode)

1, a SATA hard drive is hung on the SATA1 interface, a CDROM is hung on the PRIMARY IDE interface (set to the main disc):
(1), boot into the BIOS settings, select in the MAIN menu IDE Configuration
(2), change Onboard IDE Operate Mode to Compatible Mode
(3), select [Primary P-ATA+S-ATA] in [Enhanced Mode Support On]
(4) After rebooting into the BIOS, you will find that there are only 4 IDE devices in the MAIN menu, [Primary IDE MASTER] is [CDROM], [Primary IDE Slave] is [NONE], [Secondary IDE Master] is [IDE DISK] after (your hard drive models), [[Secondary IDE Slave] to [NONE]
(5), boot into DOS CD-ROM, run GHOST on it

2, a SATA The hard disk is attached to the SATA1 interface, and a CDROM is attached to the SECONDARY IDE. Mouth: Just change [Primary P-ATA+S-ATA] in the third step above to [Secondary P-ATA+S-ATA], and the system will treat SATA1 and SATA2 devices as [Primary]. IDE Master] and [Primary IDE Slave].

when

3, if you use the motherboard supports SATA, but did not use SATA devices, some motherboard BIOS the SATA channel or turned on by default, in which case you want to use GHOST to backup system can lead to a black screen , so we also need to set it in the BIOS to block the SATA channel, or in the third step of the first case, change [Primary P-ATA+S-ATA] to [P-ATA Ports Only] At this point, the system will block the SATA device, you can use it as a normal motherboard without SATA devices.
