b) windows bluescreens if i use IDE 3 or 4 to boot from
I'm guessing you have some sort of built in RAID controller right? Windows sometimes doesn't react very well to having the OS installed on one IDE controller, and then trying to boot it off a different one. Your RAID controller probably requires a totally different set of drivers then your normal IDE controller, and that may be confusing the heck out of windows (Are you getting the "INACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE" error?).
