Hello all,
I have Intel mainboard DG33FB, and 160GB SATA Seagate Hard disk drive.
The BIOS detects the hard disk but when I try to install Win XP Pro SP2c, it says 'Setup did not find any hard disk drive'.
Please help. many thanks.

At start of Install Press F6 and offer the SATA Controller Drivers you have put on a floppy disk, this has been covered many times before....

Download the manual to configure your BIOS settings. The link is below. On page 10 of the manual by setting you will find the settings for your SATA drive Use Enhanced and IDE. This will allow you to run without installing any SATA drivers.
