ML350 G5 - Windows Doesn't Detect HDDs

I just got this server, fired it up and no HDDs detected. 

I checked and there are two HDDs. I slapped Windows 7 CD in and rebooted.

As Windows Installer loaded, it stated that no hdds could be found and instalation was aborted. 

 

I tired 3 times, switched maintenance switch number 6 on, loaded defaults in BiOS, and still nothing.

I also switched the HDDs out for working drives from another ML350.  Still same error... 

 

Any ideas?

I pressed <ESC> and I created a logical disk and now it seems to be working...
