Terry,

You weren't watching the display.  The first thing the later installers do 
is check and update the HDD drivers.  The message you got was the failure 
of drive setup to update the disk drivers. Not a big thing.  The machine 
will work just fine with the old drivers.  The solution is to hack Drive 
Setup to include the HDD you have.  The instructions are on a couple 
hundred websites. A Google ought to turn them right up.
