Oh heck, what does this mean?? There was a blurb about Raid when the post
started but
I ignored that. Do I need to go back into setup to fix something?? If it
gets this far, all of
my physical components are working, aren't they??.

That's the problem with using such a new board with a 6 year old OS. Looks
like they released a new BIOS in mid-February. Does your XP Pro CD have
at least Service Pack 1 and preferably 2? Are you doing a raid install?
You'd need to install a driver via floppy during the initial install if
that was the case. Otherwise, you might want to do some reading up on the
board at the intel website, they may have addressed this issue. Try
starting over by wiping out the disk by destroying the MBR, boot from the
CD, format the disk NTFS, and then see how far you get.
