My motherboard manufacturer (Soltek) told me that ATA 133 drives are only supported with Windows XP SP1....does anyone know the truth to this rumor?
 
Perhaps this is just with their motherboards, as otherwise, it's not true. (not familiar with Solteks)
Rather, it's a function of the IDE controller.
 
That is not true. ATA/133 has nothing to do with the operating system. If your IDE controller supports it, then your operating system will (of course Win95 or earlier may not).
