Hello! I am at my wits end, and am finally asking for help. I have never been so frustrated with a computer in my entire life. And that's a statement.
Anyway. Here is my story. I built a FAST new gaming rig. Had a few hiccups along the way, but got it together. I used my old hard drive, as it was still working and I didn't want to spend the extra money on a hard drive on top of everything else I just bought. I gave in and bought a new hd along with Windows 8.1 64 bit OS. Great! However, I cannot get Windows to install. Right after the "Install Now" screen it thinks for a few minutes, then comes up with the following error:
Load driver.
A media driver your computer needs is missing. This could be a DVD, USB, or Hard disk driver. If you have a CD, DVD, or USB flash drive with the driver on it, please insert it now.
Note: If the installation media for Windows is in the DVD drive or on a USB device, you can safely remove it for this step.
I cannot get windows to progress any further, since I cannot figure out which bleeping driver it wants. I have tried everything I can think of to no avail. HELP!!!
Here is my system:
Thermaltake Chaser VN300M1W2N MK-I Full Tower Gaming Case
AMD FX-9370 Black Edition Processor
GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AMD 9 Series Motherboard
Kingston HyperX Fury Red 4GB Desktop Memory Module - 1866MHz DDR3 (4 memory sticks for a total of 16 GB of memory)
Corsair Hydro Series CW-9060010-WW H55 Quiet Liquid/Water CPU Cooler
ASUS R9270X-DC2T-2GD5 Graphics Cards R9270X-DC2T-2GD5
Western Digital 1 TB SATA III 7200 RPM 64 MB Cache Bulk/OEM Desktop Hard Drive, Black, WD1003FZEX
Windows 8.1 System Builder OEM DVD 64-Bit
I just cannot see what the problem is, therefore I cannot fix it.
Here's hoping someone can shed some light on what I've probably overlooked.....
