Solve : New motherboard?

Answer»

Hi, i recently installed a new MOTHERBOARD with a new processor, and a watercooling system to upgrade my pc. I got the mother board and realised i needed SATA instead of ide, so i got these ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16822998008 ) converters. Everything works in the sense that the pc powers on, but the only thing on the moniter is INFO about the bios. It gives me a list of functions at the bottom, : BIOS Setup/Qflash <F9>: ExpressRecovery2 <F12>:Boot Menu <End>:Qflash, i can only enter bios setup/Qflash and Qflash, but if i dont enter anything after about 30 seconds it says detecting ide drives but i dont have any. I was wondering if its a SMALL problem or a big problem but any help would be greatly appreciated. On the website it says to set all the drives to master, which i have done, and i took out the pins too. I hate to admit that I'm completely lost, but I am. =-C
Thanks,

You will still however need to install SATA drivers for those drives to be recognised...how do i install the sata drivers?
