OK, here's the problem. I have a Dell PowerEdge 4300 that comes with a Perc2\SC (RAID) PCI SCSI card as well as an onboard Adaptec SCSI card. The Perc2 card has two 9 gig SCSI drives hooked to it and the Adaptec has the cd-rom drive hooked to it. OK, the server did have NT Server 4.0 on it and worked just fine but I needed to put Workstation it so I went to about loading it up.
The problem is that when it gets to the "Specify additional devices" screen in the startup section, no matter what I do, it gives me the following message "No Mass Storage Devices Found" fater I hit <Enter> to proceed. Initially it sees the Adaptec card but does not see the Perc2 card so I loaded the latest drivers for it but it and then it does list it but still returns the afore mentioned error. Since the PERC2 card is RAID I rebuilt the array (RAID 1) including formatting both drives in the PERC2 setup screen but it did not help. I even tried unplugging the PERC2 card and going through the Adaptec card but had the same result.
Any ideas as to what I am missing or doing wrong?
Thanks for any help.
