I would try the cd that came with the box anyhow if there was a sticker for Vista compatibility. It would not be the first time a web site did not have the newest software version.
It has some pretty useless stuff on it when I look at it while running Vista.. I highly doubt it's bootable, but I'll try and see where that gets me.

Nope. If you mean under "disk drives", no. It's just not there. This could be a simple BIOS setting I overlooked, but I checked the BIOS more than once already and did not find anything that's set incorrectly..
