xp installation problem

by kalvin_lewis . Updated 21 years, 3 months ago

When I try installing windows xp on my newly built computer, everything apparently goes well untill I get to the screen where it says something along the lines of “press enter to carry on the installation process”. When I do as instructed (I.E. press enter), a blue screen comes up saying:
“setup did not find any hard disk drives installed on your computer

Make sure any hard disk drives are powered on and properly connected to your computer, and that any disk-related hardware configuration is correct. This may involve running a manufacturer-supplied diagnostic or setup program”

And then it says press F3 to quit. My HDD is an 80GB samsung sp0812c with SATA connection. I know that I’m supposed to press F6 and put my RAID installation floppy into the computer but that doesn’t seem to achieve anything. Help. Please!
