CD/DVD Driver stopping my whole process
I am trying to install Win7 RC into to different machines. Both are self built machines. Both are running Win XP w/ sp2.
On one machine I have tried everything to get past a CD/DVD Driver request. The first DVD driver is a NEC ND-2500A. I found what I thought were the drivers, but whenever I get to the point of selecting the drive (with the drivers in it) they don't appear within the DVD drive. I even went as far as to load the driver onto the HDD I am installing Win& to. After may attempts, with no luck, I installed a plug and play CD/DVD player. Now, I have never had driver's for this unit, but it still wants drivers for it.
What am I missing here? Why won't it get past this point. I have even gone as far as disconnecting C drive and tried loading directly to D drive (second HDD drive).
On the second computer it mentions something about an I/O shield problem and wont even let me get into the setup stage.
All help would be gratefully appreciated.
