Just upgraded my son's system but can't get past POST.
Here are the components:
MoBo: ASUS M4A87TD/USB3
CPU: AMD Phenom II x 4 955 Black Edition
PSU: Corsair TX 650W
GPU: Sapphire Radeon HD 5850 1G GDDR5 PCI-E
These are parts I am reusing from his previous computer
Optical Drive One: Lite-On 16X DVD / 52X36X52X CD-RW Drive
Optical Drive Two: NEC ND-3520 16X Dual Layer DVD+/- R/W drive
Media Reader: Alienware 10 in 1 Digital Media Reader/Writer
System Drive: Extreme Performance - Serial ATA Raid 0 - 148GB (74GB x 2) Serial ATA 10,000 RPM w/ 16MB Cache
Storage Drive: Extreme Performance - Serial ATA Raid 0 - 500GB (250GB x 2) Serial ATA 7,200 RPM w/16MB Cache
The Raid array was set up by someone else and the previous CPU was Intel. I get thru the POST then get an error message saying "missing Operating system". I have a new Windows 7 64 bit to install but I can't get it installed. I have tried to boot directly to the DVD with the Windows 7 disk in it but that doesn't work.
Please help me get this up and running.
Thanks
