SATA had to be download from SiS's website, PATA is as my patch (no idea why a sis5513 driver wasn't coded to detect a sis5513). I used rev1.1 of the sis190.c driver along with a guy from India, he says it works, I say it doesn't (but it may be because my test network is 10Meg Half-Duplex). Thank the heavens I am using this as a headless server, sound and video are a nightmare as well apparently. Many thanks for the link, boss is going on holiday next week so as long as none of the servers melt down then I should be able to work on this.
