Hi Fellas,

I already made the bootdisk for this OS, but when it finishes to read the last floppy disk, It says something like "no HDD found...etc..."

Here´s what I´ve got:

Abit KT7A-RAID, 40G Maxtor D740x. (two FAT32 partitions- 50% each)

The maxtor is connected as master to IDE3 of RAID. CD-ROM is connected as master on IDE1.

What I´m missing here? need to setup something in BIOS? boot devices?

Regards, KODE.

At some point of the install, it asks you to press F6 (I think) to install 3rd party storage drivers. Keep watching the screen as it will go on if you don't press it in time. You need to do this, and have a driver disk for the highpoint raid. If you don't, Win2k wont see the raid or disks on it.

Thanx a lot mackerel!

I noticed that, but I just ignore it,:rolleyes: It apeears on the first floppy disk read.

You mean (In my case) the 1.2.0612 HPT drivers?
