I have been installing various OS's on my laptop recently to try various things for college work, and it has Vista Home on at the moment, all working fine.

I tried to put on Windows 2000 last night, and Windows Server 2003 tonight. When trying to install these, the dos setup program stops when I select what hard drive to install too, and mentions about a SCSI hard drive?!
This has thrown me as I only have a standard laptop drive installed. I've run diagnostics and the drive is fine.
 
Ok thats fine. But why does the setup program for Win2k3 stop the installation.
It mentions SCSI drive, and also that the drive is faulty. Its only a couple of weeks old and I've just run all the Fujitsu diag tools and its fine :s
 
I've heard a lot about VM. But as I would be using it for networking, a lot of general using to try stuff out...I'd like to have the full installation there on my drive

Weird though because I actually installed 2k3 last week no problems, but I formatted it off the drive as I had a driver error for my wifi and soundcard which caused a lot of blue screen errors on boot
