Posted this in the storage section too. Thought I would try to maxmize my responses before I shoot my self in the head!!!
Ok I am getting a little ticked at this drive. Everything you should need to know is in my sig. I have tried with both using the F6 driver and without. I have formatted and copied files like 6 times. Ok here is the story. I try to install to my Segate 7200.10 drive (320GB) making a full 320GB partition. I boot up from my Windows XP SP1a disk and run through all the steps. I create the partition, format the partition, and move all the OS files over. It then asks for the 1st reboot... I reboot and upon boot I get a screen saying "Please insert proper media. Press Ctrl Alt Del to continue." My boot device priority is my CD ROM then my HDD. I have tried using both the F6 driver and w/o the F6 driver. I should not need it b/c I am not doing RAID. I have tried unhooking all my HDD's but the Segate and notta. The Segate shows up to my other windows install and I have been using it. It also shows up in BIOS. I have also tried with it in 3.0GB/s and 1.5GB/s SATA mode. WTF gives?
