Hi,
I have a badly infected XP machine and its in dire need of a clear out so I figured I would either try and do a format and install Windows 7 or will have to stick with XP.
My problem is that when I attempted the XP install it says it cant find my hard drive and I have tried the Sata/Raid floppy disc/F6 method and its not working either…..it just says it cant find the drive.
Do you think it will work installing Windows 7 as it may have the drivers that I need?
Basically I just want to clean my machine and then install or Windows 7 but failing that would still settle for XP!
My specs are –
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
Cheers,
Al
