Install Troubles on a Dell Inspiron 570 desktop

[SolarisDelta]

Hello all. I'm having some difficultly installing FreeNAS 8.0.4 on a Dell desktop. I downloaded and burned the image to a disc, and when I start the installation processes this is all I get:

------
CD Loader 1.2
Building the boot loader arguments
Looking up /BOOT/LOADER... Found
/\|

-----

And it just keeps spinning forever and nothing happens. Here is my hardware:

Thank you in advance for any assistance rendered.

SolarisDelta,
I too have the same problem...
I have tried the img copied to a USB key and get a bit further but looks like the a sata issue.

I have also tried the nas4free live CD and same exact issue.

I am able to boot to a hiren CD and that works. I did see that there are some window7 sata updates but I have not tried to install them yet.

Any input/insight would be great...
