SATA HardDrive

I am trying to load XPE on a laptop computer. This computer has a SATA
harddrive. After I format the drive and make it bootable, I copy the XPE
files to it. When I reboot, FBA doesn't run. I asked technical support of
the manufacturer of the laptop, Panasonic. They sent me a Mass Storage
driver which they said needs to be installed first, otherwise the hardrive is
not visable. Since the driver is not there, FBA doesn't run. My question
is, can I load this driver before FBA starts and if so, how do I do this?

TIA,

DK

Just my opinion but I suspect something else is wrong and the driver won't
help. I have installed XPe on my IBM T60 laptop with a SATA HD without
problems. How did you build XPe? Did you run tap.exe on the laptop and use
the generated device.pmq as a start? Is your laptop set up for dual boot in
which you have desktop XP on one partition and have another partition for
XPe?

I have installed the image on 10 SATA HD's using UBCD4Win. The only odd
thing is that after partitioning and formatting the drive, I'll have to
write a new XP MBR to get it to boot.

I did install XP Pro and ran TAP. How do I find the missing component?

I checked your list and I was missing one component. I added it to my image
but it still blue screens with the 0x0000007B error.

At the bottom it says:

STOP: 0x0000007B (0xF6D0D524, 0xC0000034, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)

Henry,

Thanks for the reply.

I have also installed XPe on other laptops with SATA HD with no problems.
This one won't even boot off a standard XP Pro DVD without this driver
installed first. I confirmed this with the manufacturer and that's when they
sent me the driver.

I ran TAP on the laptop, created a component from it and included this
component in my XPe image. I also created a component from the SATA driver
the manufacturer sent me and included that. So, the driver is there, it just
doesn't load. It is frustrating since I've done this before without any of
these problems.

Stop 7B could be some other missing component:

Did you install XP Pro on the target system and run TAP?

You need to create a driver component for the SATA driver, and include the
driver in the configuration. I am going to guess that it might be an AHCI
diver.

Here are a couple of videos that show how to create driver components:

Sean,

Thanks for the reply. I did create a driver component and I included it in
the configuration. I copied all the XPE files to the target machine and
reboot. FBA never runs and I get a blue screeen saying "A Problem has been
detected and Windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer".
Since the mass storage driver is not loaded, the hard drive is not visable.
I believe the driver needs to be loaded before FBA runs but I don't know how
to do this.
