Just put together this system. My Gigabyte GA-MA770T-UD3P is seeing my 500GB Samsung Spinpoint drive in BIOS and shows it when booting if I have my SATA set as RAID or AHCI. No matter what my BIOS settings are, however, it will not appear when I'm installing Windows. I'm told to install drivers, but apparently none of the included drivers are compatible with my hardware. I've downloaded the latest chipset drivers from Gigabyte's website and have tried those, but I'm still having no luck. Apparently I need a floppy drive to flash BIOS, and since I don't have one it looks like I don't have that option. Can any of you help me? Been struggling with this for the past few hours and it's getting really aggravating.
I've tried installing Windows 7 home premium 64 bit and Vista ultimate 32 bit, and the problem persists. Doesn't seem like something specific to one OS.
