not detecting hardrive
first of all my comp spec's are as followed:
-SATA western digital 160gig
-AV8 motherboard socket 939
-AMD 64 3500+
-6600GT
Here is my problem:
First of all, this hard drive was purchased off of ebay with windows 2000 already installed on it. After recieving it, I reformatted the hard drive and installed windows XP. It successfully installed and I powered off my computer. The next time i turned it on, it appeared that there was no windows installed so I attempted to install it yet again. When it came to the "hit enter to install windows" screen i do this, and it immediately tells me there is no hard drive installed. Yet when i look in the bios, it reads it correctly. PLEASE HELP.
