i wanted to do an automated setup, but the hard drive partition thing in dos is the only one i want to see. how can i enable this?

the website doesn't have sata drivers. what can i do? http://www.newegg.com/product/product.aspx...N82E16813128059

Application -Accessbility Options -Briefcase Drivers -Logitech Wingman -Microsoft SideWinder Hardware Support -Brother Devices -Gravis Digital Gameport Multimedia -Media Center -Media Center -Movie Maker -Music Samples -Tablet PC Network -MSN Explorer -Netmeeting -Windows Messenger Operating System Options -Out of Box Experience -Tour thats all i removed

did the SP2 thing got the hotfixes inserted my drivers for mobo stuff, and sata forgot what i did in the remove components section when i run the cd, it comes to the place where it asks me the location i want to install Windows XP, the SATA (bus 0) is never C: even when i deleted C: and created a partition for C: on the SATA it still refuses to install there. so i went to my MOBO and disabled the IDE that i had my HDs plugged in. then i went on to installing XP on the SATA. now this is where i'm having a problem.... my IDE dvd writers rn't showing up in Windows XP. and when i restart and inable the IDE that i disabled earlier, the other HDs won't show up. what did break? any ideas?

Q: Which method should I use for my SATA drivers? after searching it said I should "I installed the RAID as txt and the others as PnP." http://www.msfn.org/board/lofiversion/inde...t51140-650.html is that right? You have to open it as a zip file or sfx archive (if option is directly supported) in WinRar, PowerArchiver, WinZip etc. SOmewhere inside are inf files and other sys, dlls, cat and dirs in the same dir as the infs. Xtract the whole folder w/the infs and integrate w/nlite. that didnt work for my monitor :\ inside the first exe file, there were more files and another exe. i tired to extract that but failed.

well i am doing a search before i ask questions Q: when i intergrate drivers, is that only for the installation, like SATA or will the drivers be installed for good (like network card, and other stuff) A: will be installed for good, so when ur computer turns on, u wont need to install them again Q: how do i get drivers from a .exe? the drivers for my USB 2.0 is in a *.exe file. i tried the UniExtractor but that failed. i guess i have to add these things to the Add-On programs right?
