You did a fresh install of windows?

New motherboard == Fresh install of Windows ... You can not be sure any problem you have in the future is not related to NOT doing a fresh install.

Connect ONE drive only and do an install. I would recommend a custom install, wipe out EVERYTHING on the drive and do the install.

When you do a fresh install you can enable AHCI in the BIOS prior to the install.

So connect only DVD/CD drive and 1 HDD ? i've 2 more hdd so it would be better to plug them off ?

Yes, unplug everything you don't want the install to look at (everything that won't be C: ). That way there is NO confusion about what you are formatting or installing onto. Just pull the power and data plugs from all the disks except the one you want to be C:

i thought there was some other reason it won't be confusing all hdd's have different size's
