    On DOS screen it's shown DVD Sata drive installed BUT I can't see it on window XP, even I insert the setup disc. Is there any drivers to be installed on window ? Thanks for help

    when you have sata drives, you have to download the sata drives to a floppy disk and install during the F6 phase of an xp installation,

    or you can create a slipstreamed cd with n-lite, which will incorporate the sata drivers into your installation cd.
