Building a new computer Abit Nforce 550 with AMD64 4200x2 and a new WD SATA 2 drive Geforce 7600gt
Managed to install Abit NVRAID windows xp drivers at F6 and "s" prompt on initial setup
windows continues loading and after EULA acceptance says cannot find hard drive
As directed I have disabled RAID and sata drive shows up in BIOS as an IDE drive
Have enabled RAID and SATA 1 (board has 4 SATA slots) and tried that, then no hard drive shows up in BIOS I have yet to see a SATA drive in BIOS
are these the correct drivers???
reading the forum I have noted some people say windows xp 2 should recognize sata w/o needing driver disk
others say its needed I have tried both ways
Any ideas, please
