I will probably go with the option of changing the boot locations then like Dilbert said.

Sorry to differ in opinion with you JinnKai, but even if I had a brand new SATA drive, without it even being f-disked or formatted, a PROPERLY operating system would atleast TRY to look on the drive, and have the option to SELECT that drive as bootable. BIOS doesnt care if the drive is formated or anything, it is just looking for a physical device. But thanks for trying to help.
