I am trying to install windows Home Edition XP to a new hard drive. I get
the following message when the installation goes through the initial setup of
loading various files.
"Setup has either detected multiple disks in your machine that are
indestinguishable or detected raw disk(s). Setup has corrected the problem
but reboot is required. Setup cannot continue. Press any key to exit."
I press any key and the system reboots and the windows installation begins
all over again, with the same result.
Rebooting with a Win98SE startup floppy results in messages that several
drives are present and will not recognize the CD or Ram Drive. It is an 80GB
WD drive and fdisk indicates that there are 8 drives present. (a message
tells me that no drives after Z will be reccognized).
The processor is Celeron 500Mhz. The bios is Award, dated 6/2202000.
Any help or suggestions will be greatly appreciated. I have been fighting
this for the last 4 days.
