Same here, I could remove it and ship it to you today, probably 2nd day 
air, or one of the cheaper but fast services.  If P, however, doesn't 
have to tear his computer all apart LOL, maybe that might be a better 
solution for me.

Sincerely,  Rob.

ps.  I just found a disk that shipped with the mobo.  I thought it was a 
SATA raid driver, but it looks from the title "SATA Driver Disk" that it 
might be more generic.  At least I might be able to get Windoze working 
with this drive.
