Installing Window NT on 250 GB Maxtor Sata HDD
Dear All, I am trying to install Window NT on my PC. Currently it is having windows XP installed (Came with Dell Dimension 4700 package). I am planning to install Window NT instead of Window XP. I changed the boot sequence and inserted the window NT CD in CDROM.
Dear All,
I am trying to install Window NT on my PC. Currently it is having windows XP installed (Came with Dell Dimension 4700 package). I am planning to install Window NT instead of Window XP.
I changed the boot sequence and inserted the window NT CD in CDROM.
Window NT Setup Screen appeared and then I pressed Enter to continue to install Window NT.
Its not detecting my hard drive.(SATA 250 GB HDD).
How should I go ahead and install windows NT now, How can i make my system detect my hard drive now.
I tried to search for the installation at certain website, but they just mentioned to press f6 when system is searching hardware. I tried to do that , but then I am not having manufacture disk. Checked at Maxtor website, they are saying they dont supply driver disk..Please let me know how should I go ahead now.

Dear All,
I searched for the Sata Driver on the Website. Versio is:
Version 10032 of the SiI3x12 Windows RAID driver
I pressed f6 when the window was booting and then pressed S to install additional driver. I selected others and install the driver.
After this this silicon image driver was displayed on the list.
I pressed Enter to continue but still it was not showing up my hard disk.
