I am not saying it would not install but it would be like wading through treacle when you tried to run it with those specifications.

The link below is for specifications to run Vista.

I know it would run VERY SLOW....But I want vista on one of my computers just for fun so....if it runs SO slow that I explode then Ill remove it but I just want to see it working.

Thanks

Is the drive new? Is it formatted? Until it is formatted it will not be recognised properly by Windows.

With the drive properly connected, open "Manage" by RIGHT clicking My Computer then click on Disk Management. Is the disk shown in the list? If yes, is it formatted (it will tell you this under File System). If it isn't, RIGHT click the disk in the list and click Format and follow the instructions.

K Ill try putting it in as slave and formatting it.

Is there RAID drivers for the harddrive you can try specifying before installation? There are times where it is not recognized as an individual harddrive. If you have them you can press F6 during install and see if you have the suitable one.

Hard Drive doesnt show up in installation?
