Dereck47, I see how I misunderstood your post. I thought you were saying to load drivers before ever starting the Install. But I guess you meant, during the Install when you press F6 to install drivers from an external resource, the driver CD that came with the mobo is the place to get them. This is unlike earlier Windows that could only load such drivers from floppies.
I am a little surprised, though, that this should become necessary. I understood that the Win 7 Install CD had all the common SATA (i.e., AHCI) drivers it needed and could install to such a HDD without the F6 routine. But now I see that OP cannot seem to get any HDD recognized in BIOS - neither SATA not IDE. Points to a significant mobo problem. Just to be sure, OP, you did connect BOTH power supply lines from the PSU AND data cables from the mobo SATA (or IDE) ports to your HDD's, right?
Also to check: OP, you say when you tried IDE drives, they were not detected in BIOS. There are a few things that have to be done right with IDE drives, but let's not get side-tracked here - the aim is to work with SATA drives. Does the BIOS detect your SATA drive? If that HDD is detected correctly and the SATA Port Mode is set to AHCI, it certainly should work. If it's not even detected in BIOS you have other problems.
