It seems a very similar spec to the 7400 (Core (2) Duo, i945GM chipset, Intel 3945ABG wifi). I also had problems running -stable with the SATA drives in native mode= , which is why I'm running -current. The drive works fine in 'compatible'= mode in the BIOS in -stable. The only things currently not working 100% for me are: =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 DVD insists on running PIO4 mode =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 No DRI in X =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 No drivers for 3945ABG =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 Fingerprint reader doesnt work =A0 =A0 =A0 =A0 Bluetooth probably doesnt work (I have no bluetooth dev= ices, so never tried) Of these things, the only one I care enough to mess around with is the fingerprint reader (sounds fun :) I'm sure many of them are fixable. Of course, HP dont ship a video bios that actually supports the native resolution of the panel included, but sysutils/915resolution can fix that. Audio works fine following ariff@'s excellent work on snd_hda. I've not tried -stable for a few months, so it is more than possible that these fixes have been MFC'ed already - I think snd_hda has for sure. If you'd like my dmesg.boot / kernel configs, give us a shout.

The main problem was that FreeBSD didn't recognise sata drivers. In October, a new release of FreeBSD 7-cure has been released, and I would like to ask you, whether anybody has any version of fbsd on any nx7400 or similar hardware?
