Same thing happened when I built my new rig with an SATA HD. How many drives are you installing? I wasn't installing a RAID array, but it still prompted me for the floppy later on, even though F6 didn't work. Is there any additional info you can provide?
 
Put drivers on floppy and push F6 then setup continues to load files. After loading files it will then check for the floppy driver disk.
Setup does not stop as soon as you press F6 as some think it should but rather after it completes loading files from CD.
 
yup just installed win xp on seagate sata harddisk a week ago, make sure you have your satadrivers on a ploppydisk press f6 and you will be ok.
 
Oh okay...didnt know that...first time to do RAID this way...also found out newegg.com sent me a bad floppy drive....

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(
