XP Re-Install No Hard Drive
Another issue with this system.
When I try to reinstall windows I get the following error.
I boot from cd no problem
It ask me to accept F8 no problem.
Next it does not show any drives to install on. It says "Unknown Disk" "no disk in drives"
I have tried several hard drives. Same problem.
Thanks everyone

Also, make sure that if the machine has onboard RAID that RAID is turned off, otherwise you'll need to get the correct driver from the RAID manufacturer, put it on a floppy and connect a floppy to the machine (Press F6 upon bootup to load a different driver).

Alright I was able to see drive and have started install.
Hopefully that is the last of the issues it throws at me.
