my bottom 2 sata ports do not work. (ports 5 &6)i have tried several devices and cables in them, still n/g. the intel matrix manager says that i only have 4 ports on this board. i am using the 10/19 bios, the drivers that came on the disc. i have 2 x raptor in ports 1 & 2, a seagate 500gb 7200.11 in port 3, and a sata dvd/r in port 4. neither hdd or opticals work in ports 5 and 6. the j.micron ports yellow ports 7 & 8) work fine. do i have to move a jumper to disable esata to enable these ports? my first board arrived doa. i just got this back after 2 weeks from newegg today. i would really hate to have to rma it again. other than that, it all works great.
btw, is there any reason to move the fsb jumpers? i have my overclock set in bios, and its working fine. is there some benefit to using these?
Thanx.
