Hello,

The Adaptec 7895 should be aic0. You could look at Intel.com for any 
bios/firmware upgrades for the Motherboard. I know that the l440GX+ does not 
require the update, but it does improve the reliability.  

Also check that the HardDrives are hooked up to the SCSI connector and that  
any other devices, are on a seperate channel.  SCSI will default to the 
slowest device on the channel.

The error you are getting is that "no drives were found for the install"?
