    Default Which SATA drivers to download?

    Okay ran into the No Hard Drive error while trying to install XP. I'm going to use nLite to integrate the drivers into my copy of XP.

    I've got a Seagate ST3500320AS, using a Intel(R) ICH10R SATA AHCI Controller and a Asus PQ5 Pro mobo thingy. Where do I find the drivers I need for this?

    ill post what google yielded and what i know

    from my exp;
    sata and ide basically dont need drivers (or come preinstalled already, dont know)
    i can hookup other hdds and dvd players just fine without having to install something

    google:
    it might be in the bios;
    either legacy (wich ill doubt)
    or you need to change SATA to ATA and have your prob fixed (possibly, one hit with positive replies)

    also google:
    only resuls on this were dell pcs with vista preinstalled, all wanted to revert back to xp
    some said to install xp on c: and vista on d: and the other way around

    no direct drivers download links found, only request and that kind of stuff

    Yeah it was tough to find, but I found a similar problem here and got some drivers from Intel.

    Am I selecting the right one? Or should I integrate everything just in case? Haha.

    Get a driver for your mainboard chipset.

    Storage device drivers are included in that.
    (Drivers in your list are drivers for different intel mobos)

    you're all doing it wrong.
    This is a laptop, right?
    Go to the laptop's official driver page. Or tell me what the laptop's manufacture and model is.

    If it's a desktop motherboard that you need the drivers for, go to the motherboard's support site.

    don't even need google to figure it out.
