I'm under the impression it is. I did my first post on my new build about 30 mins ago. Messed around a little with the BIOS, which showed a 500GB HDD and went to go install Windows 7. W7 is now telling me I can't install W7 because I have no HDD.
I'm wondering if this has something to do with my BIOS or if in fact my HDD was DOA. I restored everything on the BIOS to default and still this problem persists.
I'm using an AM3 Gigabyte board. It defaults to IDE so I went to switch to RAID. I couldn't get anything going from the DVD drive with RAID selected so I went back to IDE. I'm using a single Seagate 7200.12 500GB SATA.
Right now I'm letting W7 try to repair whatever is wrong but I'm doubtful.
This is also my first build lol
