    asus a8n-sli deluxe does not detect sata hd

    ok problem again, i finally get the bios to recognize hdd, when i go to install window media center, and it goes to format hdd it takes too long and 0% has been formatted, I go to quick format and it says it could not format the hdd. My hdd sure makes a lot of noise especially a high pitch sound.
