Help with install

Hi

I am trying to install Ipc 10.5.6 on my system , but when i reach the disk installation option , i cant see any hard drives. Thats the same case for the disk utility too . I am using a Western Digital IDE 80 Gb hard drive . My system specs are :
AMD 64X2 2.9 Ghz
Ram = 2 Ghz
Gigabyte GA MA78G DS3H


What could be the problem here ? Thanks in advance :)

Hiya there, is your HDD set as master with jumper? no cable selecT?

have you formated the drive via DISK UTILITIES, as it will not see it if it is currently formated to NTFS

Actually I had two partitions on my WD 160gb hard drive. One of them was a NTFS as a backup and it was recognized by the disk utility. I also noticed that my two other IDE hard drives were not being recognized, I think you have to load drivers for it. But yeah make sure your HD is set as master like icchansan said. If all fails, I think your HD is just incompatible.

good luck :)

For AMD systems you can try Lawless or Kalyway, and you need to post your full specs to help you with the installation

i have made a new thread with the full specs , can you please check it

dude, try not to double post information, icchansan could this be to do with MAC using a GUID Partition System and it does not like the boot config that Windows Uses
