Could you please check SATA mode in BIOS ? Is it set to IDE or to AHCI or to RAID ? Normally, when you applied BIOS defaults, it should have been set to IDE. In IDE mode, Win XP should have no problem. What was this setting before ?

Just an idea. In some motherboards, SATA ports are set as Auto or Not Connected.

Can you check whether they are set as Auto ? In my motherboard (Asus P7P55D), even if I set the SATA port as Not Connected, Windows recognizes the drive connected to that port, but BIOS reads Not Connected. Yours may behave differently.

Check if there is a BIOS update. Also check BIOS update history to see if it will resolve the issue. Otherwise, no need to update. If it will resolve the issue, a floppy diskette drive costs about US$ 5-10 and is worth buying.
