Specs:
Intel Core 2 Duo E7400 2.8GHz 3MB LGA775 BOX
SEAGATE ST3500418AS
GF9600GT-E512HW/HD/GE
GIGABYTE GA-EP45-UD3R
Antec EARTHWATTS EA-650
This is my first time to build/install my computer and im having trouble installing vista into my HDD. For some reason its telling me that it cant located my HDD. I managed to Format it through the command prompt last night
The HDD is recognized in the bios
I have plugged the HD to the first intel (Yellow ) Port (Sata Port 0) and my CD/DVD Drive is connected to an IDE (JRibbon Cable) Green Port
In the Integrated Peripherals
INtel Yellow Controller
Sata Raid/AHCI Mode: Disabled
Sata Port 0-3 Native mode: Enabled
Onboard Sata/IDE Device: Enabled
Onboard Sata/IDE Ctrl Mode: IDE
Again the Bios sees the HDD and when booting the OS i can see the HD when i go to the repair feature but it wont recognize the HD when it gets to the select HD part of the Vista Download.
What am i overlooking?
do i need to do something with the Harddrive, or is it a Bios setting problem?
