I am putting together a new PC with a 120gig WD SATA Drive. Everything is connected correctly and the bios sees the drive. During Windows Setup it gets the the point where it asks you if you want to do a windows install or a previous windows fix, After I press Continue with the clean install it says "examining drive .........." and just sits there. I thought the drive was bad so I put it in my main pc and it works perfect as a second drive I can store modify delete yadda yadda. So I thought maybe it was the shuttle ( SN25P Nforce4). So I put one of my Raptors in the shuttle and it works.. What gives, Thanks in advance. :eek:
 
How long did you let it sit? It could just be taking a long time...
 
I let it examine for about 70 mins (Went to the gym and came back) and was still examining.. :(

Im gonna try to install windows in the drive while its my main rig then swap it to the shuttle (hopefully this works). =(
