hi to eveyone,
i just bought a new computer system with new components
which includes among other things an asus a7v600-x
motherboard and a 80gb maxtor sata hard drive. i've been
trying to install windows xp professional to my system
but failed. during the installation process, windows
setup could not continue because it did not detect any
hard drive. after browsing a few forum i've learned that
i must load a third party scsi/sata driver before i could
proceed the installation process. so after doing some
searching i've downloaded silicon image's scsi/sata
driver. but after loading this file during the setup
process (after pressing f6), windows setup still can't
detect my hard drive. can someone help me to overcome
this problem. asus didn't supply any scsi/sata driver
disk with the motherboard package and this is the first
time i'm trying to install windows xp to a sata hard
drive. i would welcome any help. thank you.
