LOL - With ANY motherboard - You need SATA Drivers to access your SATA Drives.
(Except when some of the nF boards used SATA as IDE, never used it myself tho)

If you have a working PC - Then slipstreaming the drivers works a treat.
(If using nLite, make sure the box at the first screen of the wizard is un-checked IIRC, or else it won't find the drivers half way through the install)
Will also save you buying a Floppy drive.

But FDD's are sooo handy - Wouldn't be without one!
