It worked great.

I installed an unformated SATA HDD
in SATA port 1. I installed a Samsung SH-SH182D CD/DVD burner
in the IDE Port. When I start the system, it gets to the "detecting IDE drives" then it lists my HDD drive model in SATA 1 and the other 5 SATA ports blank, which is correct. It then goes to the next page
and lists (in a green color) "0DD0 TSST CD/DVD SH182". I'm not sure why the green color and what the 00D0 means. When I go into
BIOS I can't find any reference to any IDE drives at all. I'm trying
to change the boot order to my Samsung CD/DVD so I can install windows. In the boot order part of BIOS the only CD ROM that is possible to choose is USB CD ROM. What do I need to do to get this done? Thanks for any help
I figured this out myself! In the BIOS when it asks you to choose
boot device I did not see the scroll bar and wasn't going down far
enough. The CD/DVD was listed there. Sorry for posting this.
