1 TB Drives

So I tried to load windows onto a Seagate Barracuda 1TB drive today. I was doing a clean install and it told me that I needed to load the raid or SCSI controllers. Please insert disk into drive A:. Well the problem is that I don't have a drive A:. Has anyone found away around this?

Inject the drivers into your OS cd with NLite.

Trust me, you'll like.

To save you some trouble, the drivers for preinstall are called 'textmode'. NLite will walk you through it, youll know what Im referencing when you get to the driver injection part.

If your DVD drive is a IDE drive make sure the cable is on the correct way ie. upside down. I have spent hours trying to solve that same problem with my machines.... Other than that try what Burn said.

Pre service pack 2 you couldn't install on a drive that large. Another option is to call them and get a XP SP2 disk which has the drivers preloaded for larger drives.
