Hi.

We ghosted our old Windows 2003 drive to a new 1TB one, and connected through new PCI SATA card.

The x260m server fails to boot with error 1962: "Boot sector not found."

When we connect the drive directly to motherboard, it boots fine, so the problem is probably in getting BIOS to boot from the SATA card.

Has anyone encountered and solved such issue?

EDIT: We tried disabling the on-board Sata controller (Hostraid/SAS?), but there is no such option - only enable, enhanced and compatible. Tried also to chance boot device priority to all possible choices - no luck.

Thanks in advance!
