No disk option when installing fresh Windows 7

I changed out my motherboard today. I plugged in the SSD that already had windows 7 on from the previous motherboard and plugged in a cd rom drive.

I went into BIOS and changed my boot to cd-rom.

When I restarted the pc it asked to press any key to boot from drive... I did..

After I picked the windows 7 64bit option I wanted to install I selected Custom (advanced) then the problem..

Where do you want to install Windows activated? My SSD did not show up in the list, well, nothing showed. I selected refresh, said no drives were found. I selected load driver then rescan. No devices drivers were found.

I read to open up a C: prompt, write diskpart, list discs, select disk #, clean.. once I wrote list disks it said there were none.

Once I restart my pc a second screen comes up and says: Raid option ROM, press cntrl - F4 for raid option rom utility.

What can I do to wipe the drive and install windows 7 on this new motherboard?

No ideas?

Check in the BIOS and see if it's set to Raid. If it is, try changing it to AHCI.

Thank you TrustMe, that's all it was. Your a gentleman and a scholar :)

That's good news. I'm glad it worked for you.
