Hi,
I am really getting stressed with trying to do a clean install of XP over my existing cluttered XP with a nice virus on it.
I have had it for about 10 years and it’s in dire need of a good scrubbing.
My problem is that when I try and complete the install from the XP cd its states that it is unable to find/locate my hard drive.
From what I have read up on, I need to create a floppy in order to complete this as I am unable to change from Sata to IDE in my Phoenix bios as the setting is not there.
I really have no clue how to do this or where to get the drivers from or even what I am looking for.
My system is -
Bios Type – Award
Award Bios Type – Phoenix Award Bios V6.00PG
Motherboard ID – 11/07/2002 Nvidia – Nforce 6A6 IBM4CC-00
Motherboard Name – MSI K7N2 Delta ILSR (MS-6570G)
Motherboard Chipset – Nforce 2-SPP
Extra Features – Sata Raid
1.5gb Ram
2.8 Athlon AMD
Can anyone tell me how to do this as I have worked on it for ages now and I am totally stuck!
Thanks in advance,
Alan
