Please try to choose an informative subject for your message.
The problem is exactly that: The disk controller is not detected (a
suitable driver cannot be found)
Try changing some BIOS settings: New motherboards often have an "AHCI
mode" for the disks. Try setting this to some other setting (like
standard, compatible...)
It would help if you could tell us the exact name and model of the
motherboard, someone on the list may have had some success with it and
could share his settings.
