Windows 2003 server doesnt see Seagate 250 gb sata hard disc

by araj_98 . Updated 18 years, 6 months ago

I have Windows 2003 ent. server installed on Seagate Momentus 250 gig SATA internal hard disc (3 partitions). The OS was installed using a HP laptop.
I have a sony VGN nr160e laptop with windows vista premium on it.
My first guess was, I need to include intel chipset specific drivers on the boot cd. So got them from intel’s website (http://downloadcenter.intel.com/filter_results.aspx?strTypes=all&ProductID=2529&OSFullName=Windows+Server*+2003&lang=eng&strOSs=84&submit=Go%21#DRV)
I can see the hard disc in the BIOS. Boot CD is working fine but I get “hard disc not found” message.
I can access the data on hard disc using usb, as an external drive. I tried to boot it using usb, it loads first screen “windows 2003”, then blue screen and then it goes in loop.

Not sure what I need to do.

Your expert advice is greatly appreciated.
