Hey, I made my pc from parts, put it together and everything worked like a charm EXCEPT the installation of my SATA Drivers. I followed these instructions exactly, I got to number 3, but when prompted to insert the floppy containing the SATA drivers I do so, but it keeps telling me it is not in the floppy drive. My first thought was a bad floppy, I tired 2 others, then I tried a different floppy drive that I knew to be working. It still will not recognize the driver, I changed the bios but still nothing. It sees the harddrive, and shows that it has 120Gigs, but it won't install the drivers. This harddrive was purchased at newegg it's OEM so I don't want to have to buy another harddrive for $70.
