Windows XP Clean Install : Need help..
« on: September 13, 2007, 07:20:34 PM »
Alright, My computer is currently running Windows XP Professional because it apparently couldnt run Vista because the Motherboard wasnt SCSI or something. Anyways, now I want to reformat my harddrives because I have way too many viruses and my computer bluescreens whenever I try running a sweep w/ Spysweeper.

Heres what happens :

I put the boot CD in, everything loads (files off cd, etc), and then it comes to a screen saying Windows cannot find your hard drive disk. If it is off please power it on... etc...

Thing is, I've done this before on this computer, and I've never had a problem like this..

My hard drive is obviously on :S, and I'm just really confused :S...

Anyways, any help is appreciated

Thanks,
Matt

The CD should have came w/ your motherboard including all drivers. Find the drivers manually -> look for Drivers -> SATA -> or something similar. Once you have them -> copy them to a floppy -> f6 when prompted -> and from there select the SATA for XP.
