First build, installing windows xp problems.
This is my first build and I got it to the set up screen but my motherboard didn't come with a system disk. And windows XP won't install.
ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD Motherboard Maxtor DiamondMax 10 6L250S0 250GB 7200 RPM Serial ATA150 Hard Drive I only posted those two specs cause I heard it may be because of the sata drive, and of course the motherboard. I do not have a floppy drive so anything with floppy is not an option. |

I thought the nVidia nForce4 chipset had native support for SATA hard drives? Make sure you have the SATA hard drive connected to the correct SATA connection on the motherboard. Check your motherboard manual for more info.

Im pretty sure it's reading the drive:
"First SATA. Master Disk : LBA,SATA 1, 251GB." |
