Initial setup, HD not recognized.

‎12-11-2011 09:20 PM

I bought this xw4300 workstation from an auction and tried to install my xp pro on it and it always ends up HD not found. I did the 2 part test on the BIOS and it works fine.

It mentions the diagnostic CD, when the HD is not detected.

Will the diagnostic file fix this so I can load my xp?
