Exclamation SATA II support in FC4

I have just built a PC with
ASUS A8V-MX mobo
Athlon 64bit 3700+ (San Diego) CPU
Two SATAII HDD Brand: Seagate Barracuda (120GB and 300GB)

Now the problem is:
When I tried to install FC4 gives me error "No Hard Drive present"
I know FC4 will need controller driver to recognize SATAII drives.
BUT HOW CAN I DO THAT ? As I dont see any compatible driver in the FC4 list to add.

Note: The drives worked fine with WindowsXP installation provided that it has the SATA driver.
Any help would be great............

What about selecting the driver which closely matches your SATA controller? AFAIK you can get away with using SATA drivers with SATA II drives.
