I have been trying bto install xp pro to a new scsi drive
and each time it goes fine to the create partition screen
and keeps telling me that there is no compatible xp
partition.

The same disc installs fine to a ide drive on the same
machine.

I only have scsi or ide in machine at a time, not both.

HELP!!!!!!!!!

You have to watch the bottom of the screen when booting off the CD and when
it says Press F6 to load third party drivers you have to load the drivers
for the SCSI controller before install Windows to that drive.
