RE: Can't get windows to install on new SATA drive.

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



I changed the bios settings to configure the satas as raid. Enabled the
onboard SATA Boot rom. Restarted entered the raid config bios and formed a
Raid 0 Volume containing the two 80 GB hard Drives. Next I rebooted with the
XP CD and hit the F6 and installed the ICHR6 and windows went on and
formatted the rAID volume and it showed up as 1 157GB drive. Goes thru the
preparing to set up process and gets all the way down to installing windows
and I still get the Cyclic Redundancy Error. D:\1386\asms. It still says
One of the components windows needs to continue setup could not be installed.
It also says if you are installing from a CD there may be a problem with
the disc, try cleaning it or try another disc.

Please someone help. Is it a bad disc or HD, or something in the BIOS????????
