    Unable to install Windows

    I have this motherboard:

    http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813188016

    I am trying to install Windows on a Sata hard drive. I am able to see the sata drive in the BIOS and also when I boot off the Windows CD initially. When my computer restarts and attempts to load off the hard drive for the first time to complete the Windows installation, it doesnt load. I was thinking that I need to install sata drivers on startup but I don't know where to find them.

    Has anyone else had this problem with certain system boards? I am able to install Windows on an IDE hard drive, but I am trying to get away from IDE.

    Thanks in advance.

    cant install windows 8 on my cruciall ssd drive

    Yeah, that was going to be my next suggestion. You can actually access the command prompt from inside the Windows installer, then run DiskPart and do a Clean command on the drive.
