Good Bye Asus

Hi,

Anyone else have this issue? I have Vista 32bit. I have an Asus P5B
motherboard. It has that all wonderful Jmicron controller (1.06.59
version).

Anyhow, I cannot seem to get the eSata port on the back to recognize
anything. It works, the BIOS sees the external drive plugged in, but
Vista sees nothing.

I cannot seem to find a fix for this or anything........can anyone
help? Anyone have this issue?

Worst case is I need to spend another $300+ to buy a different brand
motherboard and chip that will properly support esata........

Regards
.
