Question WD SATA HD Problem

Alright Im setting up a new computer when i got to install the OS on the new SATA Drive and i hit F6 to load the SIIG drivers the following screen tells me there is no drive to format and install an OS. It picks up the Drive on the BIOS.

I have:
AMD 64-BIT SKT 754
ASUS K8V-X
WD WD800JD SATA DRIVE
COMBO DRIVE (ARTEC)
kingston value ram (512)
Do i need the drivers off the WD Website?
I not sure what to do, help?

SATA drive is the only drive on the computer besides the combo drive.

Hi,

when do you hit F6 ? I think you hit F6 at the wrong time. You need to press F6 as soon as the first blue screen appears. At the bottom it will also say something like "Hit F6 in order to install 3rd party SCSI/RAID controllers".
