Can't install Windows, any help?

Priapus · 11 Apr 2007 at 08:12

Morning guys,

I'm trying to install Windows Xp Professional onto a newley built machine. Now I have a 250gb SATA drive in there. So I made a cd with SATA drivers on that I had on back-up, but they aren't the right SATA drivers, so Windows now doesn't pick up my HDD, so it can't install.

The board is an MSI PM8Pm-V.

Anyone know where I can find the SATA drivers for this board as the MSI site doesn't seem to have them on there..

Many thanks!
