Abit NF7 and large hard drive support

[GoingUp]

Ive tried everything that I know and I cant get my new large 250GB hard drive to boot at all on my Abit NF7 2.0

Its a 250GB 16mb cache maxtor. Windows can see the drive and I can format with it, I just cant boot off it. I always get the error message that "error loading operating system"

any bright ideas?

Enable LBA in BIOS?

doesnt work. then the system hangs at the DMI pool check.

Try reading the Maxtor instructions.

Use a program called 'maxblast' that's
available on thier webste.

P.S. Only create your 'boot' drive (ie: C:\ ),,,
then create the rest in windowz
