HOW TO INSTALL WINDOWS XP / SERVER 2003 WITH SATA DRIVERS

Recent days hardware manufacturers come with new idea that is SATA hard drive, SATA CD ROM drive for speeding up data transfer. Some time it’s hard to install windows operating system when your operating installation CD is old version but the hardware is new. Problem because of SATA driver we need does not come embedded in the Windows XP or Server installation package. To solve this issue we can follow below method.
Ingredients are involved in this operation:
1. The original Windows XP or Server Installation CD
2. A freeware application named
NLite
3. A blank CD
4. SATA controller drivers provided by the manufacturer.
STAT drivers could be found in floppy inside the motherboard package or you can download from manufacturer web site. After download the drivers unzip them (in case they come archived) in a desired location. Then download and install the Nlite (download from above linked web site) application. When you start the Nlite application, you will be asked to provide the location for the Windows installation package. Insert the genuine Windows Installation CD into the CD drive and, inside the application, select the CD drive letter.

To insert the SATA drivers within the installation package, you need to have it saved on the HDD. Hence, when the warning window appears click OK and select the destination folder for the files to be saved. Make sure that the destination partition / HDD has enough space to store the contents of the installation CD.
I tested a Windows Server 2003 standard edition and it seems that it required about 569 MB. Immediately after you have chosen the destination folder, the application will start copying the Windows installation files. When finished, it will display some version information regarding the newly copied Windows Installation Package.
Now, click next twice until you get to a screen where you get options sorted in 4 categories: Integrate, Remove, Setup, Create (left side of the window). We are interested in the integration procedure, therefore select the Drivers button and click next. From the next menu window, click Insert and select multiple drive folder option from the drop down menu. This option permits you to browse to the location where the downloaded drivers are found.
Select the containing directory and click next. You will get a list with the available drivers (in case there are more than one) or simply one driver. Select it (them) and click next. Now the application will ask for the permission to start the integration procedure. Choose Yes and wait for the drivers to be inserted into the installation package.
With problematic driver being included in the installation package you can install Windows XP or Server on your SATA HDD...but...the installation package is on the HDD. You need a bootable CD in order to start an installation. Don't worry, once the installation package has been adorned with additional user selected drivers it can be transformed into a bootable disk image and later burned on a CD. To encapsulate the installation into a ISO image use the same Nlite application.
Open it, make sure the HDD installation folder is selected and click next. Select "Last session" preset and click next again. Now from the options menu choose Bootable ISO and click next. In the following window, make sure that the mode is set to "Create Image" and click Make ISO. A destination folder is required where the resulting ISO image will be saved. Once the image saving process finished you have the freedom to burn it on a blank CD with whatever you favorite CD burner software may be. Go to www.download.com and you will find lots of freeware to burn your ISO image.
The new CD will be the twin copy of the Windows Installation CD but with one difference, it includes the SATA driver.
