Guys

I bought from OCUK a Gigabyte GA-G33M-S2 Micro ATX (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard for my media centre . I had no problems getting it to post but when i loaded Vista 32Bit Home Premium and came to the screen where you are given the option to format I clicked next to load to the drive and came up with this message .

" Windows could not determine if this computer contains a valid system volume "

Now i tried it three times and then tried it with three drifferent hard drives . I have spken to tech support at OCUK and we have RMAD the board .


Does anyone know what that message means ?
 
I know it sounds stupid, but maybe try a different DVD drive.

I had a bizarre problem where Vista was moaning about my HD during installation, but I eventually got it working by pulling a DVD burner out of another rig and using that.
