SATA RAID floppy with windows install with no floppy drive?
Ok so I just built my computer and without thinking I skipped out on a floppy drive. Unfortunately, my HD is set up for SATA and SATA only. It’s a WD Caviar SE 150GB SATA HD. Is it possible to install windows on to a freshly built computer with SATA HD without a floppy drive on any computer around me?
Actually there is and i found this out by mistake. If you’re installing windows xp you can go to your bios and tell it to treat SATA like IDE
Here’s the mistake i found:
If you are installing Windows Vista, it rcognized sata drives and you dont need 3rd party drivers for it. Vista is good on that. Already installed Vista on 4 computers with SATA, all worked fine.
