Hello,

I have a laptop that currently has no operating system. I'm trying to install Windows and right after the user agreement screen it seems Windows is unable to identify any drives. I'm thinking I either need to install some kind of RAID driver or one of the hard drives is dead (thus the computer is saying 2 hard drives that look like one should be here, but there aren't so Windows can't see any hard drives). If I need to install a RAID driver how would I do that on a laptop that has no floppy drive (most laptops only have a DVD burner / reader / everything else these days)? How do I verify if one of the drives is in fact dead? Thanks!
