Greetings, I need to install Windows XP on a clean SATA drive (after my old IDE drive failed). Having real problems getting Windows to recognise the SATA drive - here is my spec:

Aopen AK77600GN motherboard with SATA support (SATA drive recognised by mobo)

Athlon 1700+ processor, 512 mb ram, cd rom drive, floppy.

Any help gratefully appreciated.

This is a tech. problem, in search of a solution.

It properly belongs in "Technical Q&A," not in "Discussions." There you will be more likely to get the attention of those seeking questions that they might answer.

You should re-post there.

Thank you.
