Had Windows XP installed on an old Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 120GB.
Formatted the drive for a clean install from Windows 7 DVD
Now I get this:
"Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk's controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu."
It is, and yes it can. And why is it even saying this when the installer can format and partition this drive till it turns blue.
It gives me the option to "Load Driver" but there are no drivers for this HDD, it's all pre programmed in the motherboards.
Any help will be GREATLY appreciated before this thing goes off the roof!
System Specs:
ASROCK PT880 Pro Motherboard
Intel Celeron E 3200 2.4 Ghz
Seagate Barracuda 7200.7 120GB IDE set as master HDD
1 GB ram
