   3. Use the “Down Arrow” to select “Drive Configuration” and press“Enter”.
      
      
      
      4.  Once in the “Drive Configuration Menu” use the down arrow again to select “Configure SATA as” and press “Enter”
      
      
      5.  From the next menu select “IDE” from the list and press Enter.
