I have a GA-7A8DW main board and a SATA ST320082 2AS drive. when copying
large amounts of data
to the sata drive i get a pageing timeout. I have updated to the latest bios
and downloaded a windows driver
from giga-byte to fix the listed problem.

when i install the driver update in windows the driver is accepted however
on reboot i get a bluescreen stop
and reboot cycle so i have to load last known good config.

i'm thinking i can't install the driver in windows and will have to do a new
xp install with F6 to load the new driver.

this would suck. is there anyway to install the driver at boot without
re-intsalling xp again ?

A pageing timeout relates to a memory conflict,either in ram memory or page
file...What download are you trying to install....Youre board if P4
equipped,would
use intels hardware/software,thier really is no download for the SATA
controller
unless you use RAID.
