I'm on the edge...I hope someone can help me.
Installed new Gigabyte GA-965GM-S2 MB with:
Pentium D 3.0 DC CPU
MEM 1Gx2|WINTEC 3AMD2800-2G2K-R RAM
SONY|DRU120C DVD Recorder
WD 500 GB SATA
The bios recognizes both the hard drive and Sony DVD (as long as I use the purple sata port and config to IDE. When loading Win XP, the install keeps blue screening indicating a storage device issue. The system does not have a floppy but I will get one. Where do I find the driver and text file (txtsetup.oem) when using the F6 function on install? Am I trying to load a driver for the hard drive or the motherboard? I have looked through the CD that came with the motherboard and it seems as if they assume that Windows is already loaded.
I am unable to format the hard drive (even tried using Win 98 bootable CD and FDISK). Any suggestions?
