hi, i am completely new to setting up computers on my own, and right now this whole configuring my HD thing looks to be the hardest part so far. I have a 250 GIG SATA Hard drive but I think I have to install the driver first to be able to partition it and stuff so I need detailed help, please.
I realize that i am supposed to reinstall windows by booting from cd. I figured that part out. and i'm supposed to push f6 during that. I know that too. but, I just tried it, with these two floppies the HD installation cd made for me... (it had this little feature that made 2 floppies) and when i pushed f6 during the reinstallation of windows, I got a message like - "put in floppy, press enter" then after i complied - "not reading txt.oem " or something along those lines. I tried both floppies but was unsuccessful with both.
I'm not sure, but i read around on the forums am i supposed to "configure the raid settings" or something before i reinstall windows and all? and why didn't my floppies work? could i please get some detailed help please?
