Default PC question??

Can I Boot my comp. from a PCI IDE card my HD is hooked up to?

The reason is I have a ATA 133 HD (120GB) and my MB only support ATA 100. I have a 133 PCI card, and I want to use the 60GB ATA100 HD I'm currently using in my spare PC.


thnx ppl

So how do I go about doing this? I hit delete at the prompt and went into the MB setup, but where do I find the setting to change? :thinking:
