I have a Dell Optiplex 620. I had XP on it, and recently upgraded to 7 32-bit. Regardless, I have error messages stating that it cannot find SATA or PATA drives. If I press F! to continue, it's fine. Once I get into Windows, I can see all the drives and access them without a problem. Any ideas on how I can solve the problem, or at least get rid of the error messages?

Since you have mentioned that all drives are visible with in OS, this error message will help us find the root cause of the issue.
