Also a friend was telling me that XP does not support native SATA and would probably not install well. Any idea what he was talking about?

Thanks in advance!
Hey William, my machine has been running fine for a while now. However, is there any way this setup could affect POST? I'm trying to add another 2 GB of ram (Dual channel DDR2). Unfortunetly, the monitor doesn't get signal even though the system boots on, and detects when the new ram is taken out. I know the ram is not defective and it's the correct type for my board.

Either the bios needs an update (and I can't find one for the D945GCF G1 motherboard) or the motherboard is bad, or this setup has done something odd. It's probably my motherboard, but I thought I'd ask before I send it in for service.

Again, thanks in advance!
