XP doesnt find Harddrive

Styleprojekt · 02-08-2005, 05:47 AM

So i am trying to install Windows XP Professional on my 2nd PC i just assembled. And i have Run the CD of the Western Digital Drive and intalled it. I then try to Run the XP CD and everything seems to be found except the Hard Drive itself. It says that it cant find it eventho the other CD etc has properly installed and prepared the Hard Disk for XP. All cables are correctly plugged in (obviously)....so what else could be the problem? I tried to find a setup option on my BIOS but couldnt find one. (its a Asus P5AD2 btw like mine)

Anybody have ANY idea please post....thanks
