Ok, this is really starting to cheese me off. I have an Abit KN8 Ultra mobo with an AMD 3700 san diego, now the computer recognises (in CMOS) all my drives, so i boot from the CD drive and begin installing windows - I format the master HDD in IDE port 1 - Windows copys itself to the harddrive and the computer reboots then :mad: "Detecting IDM drives" "Boot disk failure" "press ctrl+alt+del to restart" :mad: :down: WHY!!!

i used the raid controller and it just said "boot disk failure" "insert system disk and press enter" though i might have not installed the raid drivers for xp, I'll give it a go. (just a little annoying cos i gotta keep using the ram fom this comp)

[EDIT]

ok i enabled raid and began installing windows with the XP raid drivers off the supplied floppy disk, windows copied to the harddrive, the computer restarted and guess wot......."boot disk failure":confused:
