ummd Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I have a retail install of Leopard 10.5.5 humming along nicely, but recently decided I wanted to install windows on a spare drive. I'm not too picky on whether it's Vista or XP since it's just for gaming. Being a windows novice, I'm running into some snags with both. GA-EP35 DS3P My drives show up in my BIOS like 0: SATA DVD 1: Windows Drive 2: OSX Drive 3: Backup I have 1 partitioned with MBR, and I've installed the motherboard driver that allows AHCI to be used. Vista claims that it cannot find a suitable drive, even though it seems it can partition 1 fine. Asking XP to partition 1 works fine, but upon asking it to install on 1 it tells me it wants to install something on 2, but can't because it is partitioned incorrectly (GPT error i assume). So my only guess is that it has something to do with master/slave issues, but being a mac guy I haven't had to concern myself with the ins and outs of this for windows. Any advice?
