alright, so i finally just went out and bought a SATA hard drive and installed windows with no problem. now i'm wondering if you guys can help me set up a mic on this board. it doesn't seem to work.
alright, now this is just weird. i tried it on the 80GB hard drive and the same thing happened again! it went straight back to the first step after the restart! i don't know what the problem could be at all now. please help me out with this :/
yeh i know that with SATA drives, you hit F6 at windows setup when prompted (it goes by kind of quick so watch for it) and then you put in the floppy that came with the mobo, and then you select both of those nvidia drivers (forgot the names). i think that might work for SATA.
no, i think the 80 gig hard drive that i'm going to try and install windows on right now is a Seagate i'm pretty sure. my dad is about to use this computer (this one is his) so maybe you could help me out by looking some stuff up on the seagate website that might be of some value incase this...

1. CD-ROM

3. Hard Drive (don't have my floppy drive hooked up right now so i set it as hard drive as well).
and just to be exact, this is what is says in Hard Disk Boot Priority:
1. Ch0 M. : WDC WD200BB-00DEA0
2. Ch0 S. : ST380013A

hey guys, i'm building a system (or at least trying to) and i'm having a problem installing windows xp pro on my k8n neo platinum. i have found solutions for installing windows xp when using SATA drives but this, however, does not help me. i am using a 20GB IDE hard drive and when windows...
