That doesn't sound like the disk controllers, then - unless it can't find a driver for those controllers, I suppose. Try loading up a Knoppix cd and see if it'll boot all the way to the OS... if that works, you probably have a Windows driver issue of some sort. If it doesn't, you can probably be certain there is something defective in your new hardware, in which case I would return it for exchange.
