No, fully turning off the SATA controller, which is probably somewhere else in your BIOS.

Try any or all of the following -
In the BIOS, look in the "PnP/PCI Configuration". Does it read "PnP OS Installed" = "YES"?
Move the sound card to a different PCI slot. (Or, remove it for now.)
Plug the drive into the second SATA controller. Force it to boot off of the second controller. In the BIOS, look in "Advanced BIOS Features". Set the "First Boot Device" to "HDD-1" or similar.
If none of the above fixes it - as a last resort, you can manually configure IRQs in "PnP/PCI Configuration" with "Resources Controlled By" = "Manual".
i could try but i was hoping that i dont need to open up the pc
I'd try checking the BIOS first - for "PnP OS Installed". No need to open the computer.

Didn't work.
SOLVED! Had to install DOS directly to HDD and include HIMEMX.
