( Keep the "Intel Robson Technology" (What a name to use in the BIOS) Disabled first and just set SATA as AHCI. ) I tried both[Disabled and Enabled], but failed. ( Or what problem do you have with point 4? ) P5K has Default AHCI Mode on only BIOS 0406. (Not BIOS 0408, 0603, 0805...) o The step 4 on 0406 : - ( SATA Configuration[intel Robson Technology - Enabled or Disabled] + Configure SATA as [AHCI or IDE] ) ( I couldn`t go to xp. ) - ( SATA Configuration[Disable or Comparable or Enhanced] + Configure SATA as [AHCI or IDE] ) ( If I select IDE... ) o The step 4 on 0805 : - ( SATA Configuration[Disable or Comparable or Enhanced] + Configure SATA as [iDE] ) ( I couldn`t see AHCI Mode. ) ( As I said above, 0805 has only IDE on "Configure SATA as" ) ------------------ Intel Robson Technology ( http://www.intel.com/technology/magazine/c...robson-1206.htm ) Robson is the code name for a new Intel® platform technology that uses non-volatile memory (Flash memory) to increase system responsiveness, make multi-tasking faster, and extend battery life. Robson technology will be available on Intel’s forthcoming Santa Rosa platform—the next-generation mobile platform building on the power savings and performance benefits of Intel® Centrino® processor technology. Robson technology is designed to support two new features of the upcoming Microsoft Vista* operating system: ReadyBoost* and ReadyDrive* technologies... -------------------

Hi. I tested on BIOS 0406[with AHCI Mode : not jmicron] & 0805[without AHCI Mode] in ASUS-P5K(plain), but failed.^^; ( I don`t use RAID Configurations [RAID 0, RAID 1, ...] ) [1] ( puntoMX ) (BIOS 0406) 1. Unpacking drivers (done) 1.1 Extracting .IMA file with Magic ISO ( I used UltraISO. ) 2. Preparing the drivers (done) 3. Creating Windows registry file (done) 4. BIOS Settings ( SATA Configuration[Enhanced] + Configure SATA as [AHCI] => My experience : SATA Configuration[intel Robson Technology - Enabled or Disabled] + Configure SATA as [AHCI] ) So I couldn`t experience the next steps[ 5. & 6. ] 5. Installing the drivers in Windows 6. Final installation check [2] ( VascoMan ) (BIOS 0406) 1. Unpacking the Drivers (done) 1.1 Extracting .IMA file with Magic ISO ( I used UltraISO. ) 2.1 Preparing the drivers (done) 2.2 Preparing the media (done) 3. Installing the drivers in Windows (done - F6 method) 4. BIOS Settings ( SATA Configuration[Enhanced] + Configure SATA as [AHCI] => My experience : SATA Configuration[intel Robson Technology - Enabled or Disabled] + Configure SATA as [AHCI] ) 5. Creating Windows registry file (done - After installing XP with this method, the registry didn`t contain these settings.) 6. Final installation check ( I couldn`t try this step because of step 4. ) Who succeeded on ASUS-P5K ? ---------- I modified my experiences. ( one more : Robinson => Robson )
