Hi all, Good day! I am just a newbie and i am task to build dell poweredge 2850 server using windows 2008 r2 standard RAID 5. I'm writing this because i seek assistance. I was not able to finished it because of some error i encountered during my OS installation. 1. Windows cannot be installed to this disk. Windows needs the driver for device (RAID CONTROLLER). Click 'Load driver' load required driver. 2. Windows cannot be installed to this disk. Windows must be installed to partition formatted NTFS. 3. Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The partation was reserved by the computers original equipment manufacturer (OEM). I badly needed help. if anyone happened to have a driver pleased your help is highly appreciated. thank you so much...
You should be able to find the driver on the support page for the poweredge 2850. It should be a compressed file that you can unzip to a thumb drive. When it asks you to load the driver, plug in the thumb drive with the decompressed driver, select "Load" and browse to the driver location. After that you should be able to partition the drive and install the OS
