U have 2 check the connection of HDD means it connected properly or not [SATA has different settings to connect u know it]....& if u hav already tried any settings abt HDD in BIOS den only !!!
why not properly dedect seagate hard disk & not partition create.
You can use Win98 tpye disk...
and you can create Ms-dos...
then install windown 98 ....
then upgrade to Window xp
