i booted up for the first time (my first build) and realized that it was only recognizing the disc drive i also decided to boot from the disc (to install windows) but it had nothing to install it to
as the HDD wasn't recognized (waste of time i now realize). I have switched the sata cables from the disc drive to the HDD to see if it's sata not working but still it was only the disc drive being recognized. I'm not sure what raid is but my motherboard manual describes very briefly what raid is next to describing where the sata connectors are(so i'm guessing that raid is something to do with sata or HDD, so not to sure if this is a raid problem? so when i first boot i have two options. 1. 'continue' which i have established boots from the disc drive and 2. 'enter set up' which i have no idea what happens when/if i click that...
what should i do?
thanks in advance
