If you have the SATA controller driver installed, you should be able to see the hard drive in drive management - right click 'My Computer' and select Manage then near the bottom you will see drive management. Click here and you should be able to see all the current hard drives installed in your machine, if your new hard drives are not formatted you will need to format and partition them which you can do from Drive Management.

Windows XP Pro?

Did you install the updates? SP2?

I used to get messages like that initially but now they are all gone.

So your drives are not showing up at all in drive management? Are they showing up in the bios ok?

I don't know how I would look for them being how they are off the controller card.

just go through the routine, scan for viruses, scan for spyware. run windows updates and get all the updates, and lastly try running memtest or something to make sure the RAM itself isnt fried

well it would depend on the actual function being done in RAM, those games may do different RAM functions.

thats why I suggested that one as last though. check the other stuff first

All the net homos keep saying to check your memory directly; clean it switch it out, but that can't be it, man.

Sound's like a bad dll, something missing in the registry, or a few people who HAVE had success resolving the problem removed a buggy program that was likely sharing resources with IE. Possibly another damn shared dll that's conflicting with IE.

Try terminating a few startup programs running in the background, possibly some services related to those programs. If that doesn't work, pick your, uh, goofiest app you have installed on your computer (no not your games, although you never know) and uninstall it. Then run IE.
