My System

I would suggest that he is probably trying to install to a SATA disk without loading the drivers at F6 in the install.
the drivers will either be on the CD that came with the motherboard or he'll have to source them from the motherboard manuafacturers site.
Another alternative is that he acquires the SP2 network distribution update and streamline his Original CD with SP2, this has the drivers updated and works without additional driver disks.
