Megatouch Ion - New HDD installation problem - Hard drive not compatible

I've been trying to install 2012 Ion software onto a new hard drive. The program starts to load
and at first I get a message stating that the HDD is not a merit hdd. However, software install
begins and goes to about 35%. Then I get an error #8 stating. According to troubleshooting
guides, error #8 points to IDE cable and hard drive. I changed both and still get the same
error. Is there some trick to installing software onto new drives to get the software to
install?
 
Changed DVD drives and still problem. Could it be my software? Anyone have Megatouch Ion 2012 software for download?

Have you tried to reformat the hdd's then try the install? In the linux kenerl of the mbr u place merit001
instead of the hardrive barking back it's s/w bios code..ie segate/wd/size. Try this place for software https://megatouchmods.com/ Seems to be down atm

Any way you can elaborate on this? How do I place merit001? This is what I'm not understanding.
 
software

Thanks. That's where I downloaded the 2012 software but it won't take. I'm not sure if I"m supposed to do anything different or if that version isn't working.
