Didn't know it was a server

I recently purchased a computer on e-bay. I did not know it was a server. I has a raid configuration. I bought Vista Basic. When I try to load it it says it does not detect any hard drives. Is there a way around this? Can Vista basic be loaded on this system?

You'll need to have the RAID drivers loaded onto a disk for Vista to locate them.
When loading Vista you'll see a screen that has a "Load drivers" button. Use that to load the drivers.

As for it being able to run Vista Basic - you'll have to compare the specs of the system with the specs required for Vista here: Get Windows Vista: System requirements

Nope, you need the driver specific to the storage controller on the system.

Can you give us the make and model of the system?
