Serial ATA Controller ENABLED
AHCI Configuration ENABLED
IDE Controller ENABLED

so im not sure if its one of these options
i also ready this other topic and the person had the same problem is it true that i can install vista in this situation? and i dont have to press F6 and or insert a floppy disk

Thanks for all those that have tried to help it is much appreciated
Try disabling AHCI Configuration. I had the same problem, and I changed "SATA Configuration" (or something) in my BIOS from "AHCI" to "Compatibility" and it worked.
