during the start of the install when you are prompted to install storage drivers and press F6 on the bottom of the pc screen press F7 did you try that?

im not really sure when to press F7 i waited while it was loading up all the different things from the disc but i was never prompted to press F7

when you first start the install in the blue and white screens if you watch the bottm of the screen it will prompt to press F6 to install 3rd party driver. When it dose this press F7 not F6 like it asks picture below
