Adaptec does not use the hackers image file method. The factory has special software to load from the sup file.

What are the LED's doing when it comes up? At times the snap will run diagonistic on the drive (drive led). If it's doing this you will need to wait it out. It could take hours depending on what's it doing.

Normally installing in any Windows machine damages the snap file system. The ONLY THING THAT CAN READ A SNAP IS ANOTHER SNAP or a RECOVEY Service. If you stopped at the bios, your safe other wise you lost what was on there.
