dimension 9200 & windows xp install
Hi all, just taken delivery of dimension 9200, spec:
1 TB raid0 sata (2x500gb)
dual core 2
2 gig ram
nVidia GeForce 7900 GTX
Problem:
I cannot install windows xp (service pack 2) it goes in to a blue screen and I think the problem is missing raid drivers. I tried to install by prompting for driver CD but that freezes on screen "insert driver CD into drive A".
It is currently setup as default raid 0 configuration. (Is this faster/better than having 2 separate sata drives? )
If I delete raid 0 configuration in bios it does not boot up windows XP CD - It goes into a black screen. (I checked bios boot options & CD is selected as first boot option.)
Can anyone advise how to install windows XP and what changes are needed in BIOS.
Thanks
