Yeah, I have reformatted since I built it. I have two optical devices direct onto the IDE1 and IDE2 slots on the motherboard becuase I thought as I have a SATA disk drive I might aswell have them seperate rather then master/slave on a single IDE cable.
I installed the drivers that came on the mobo CD, and after I got WinXP Pro Sp1 on the other day I did a windows update which included new updated Nvidea drivers - but I dont know what it was updating - it may have just been the Sandstorm.
The strange thing is that some CD's do it, yet others are ok
Did you get that?
