Yes, you are right.

I now have the |?VL" switch. I temporarily tried the "/WL" switch and apparently Dani's
driver does not recognize/see the SATA controller. It only sees the PATA controller
and the 2 DVD/CD units attached to the secondary of the 2 PATA connectors

I don't think the BIOS is the problem. I checked it again. The BIOS "detects" the SATA
drive, and when I set that drive as the first boot device, the system boots to the
Windows OS that is still loaded on the drive.
