I installed SP1 and all of a sudden when my machine wakes from sleep - my SATA
drive disappears. Why is this???

I have enabld AHCI in BIOS and it worked great
I did NOT install Intel's Matrix driver
I have an Intel DP35DP Mother board
I have Vista Ultimate
I have an IDE drive as my primary/boot drive
I have two SATA drives. One is a SATA/300 and has no issues (so far). The
one with issues is a Maxtor 250GB SATA/150 drive.
IT DID not have any issue before SP!.

Please help!

1- you can downlord suppprt OS Vista SATA Driver.
2-Matrix Driver don,t support Vista . tthis driver Support Windows Xp Only.
3- you can update bios motherborad. but you don,t support Sata driver
4- to vista Sp1 IT his no longer support in the machine.

I have no idea what you mean. Again - Vista Ultimate without SP1 was working
quite nice with AHCI mode. The default AHCI driver within Vista is fine to
enable AHCI features of the SATA drive. Once I installed SP1 - the drive
does not wake from sleep - is there really no help out here???

I thought this was the place to get help with SP1!

Thanks - but I called them and they are useless. They took my info down and
told me there is no answer. What does that mean? Is there sbug filed - or
what? I asked and they had no answer. I was hoping this forum had some
people who actually know Vista and SP1 issues.
