AB9 Fresh Install Help Please

I just bought this (https://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/ProductDetail.jsp?ProductCode=240502) and was hoping you could all help me with what I need to do for installing drivers, etc.

I have a 500GB SATA HDD and DVD-RW. I will be borrowing a floppy drive for installation purposes. I do have a thumb drive if that can be used instead of a floppy, I dont know. However, I've been reading that I will need to flash bios and install SATA drivers and JMicron stuff. I'm not that experienced so I was hoping someone could walk me through.

Also, I have a pentium d chip which is compatible right? (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819116255)

Thanks so much!

This link will give you an idea of what needs to be done to install the drivers. I used the method described in post #2 when I built an AB9 for a friend.

Your links aren't working, but any Pentium D will work in an AB9.

Very useful! Thanks so much!!!!
