I've updated my bios and I think it'll work... I'll try this week end I'm gonna kill myself for not having updated my bios before

I have a MSI Neo2 Platinum (nForce 3) as motherboard, 2 IDE hard disk, 2 dvds and 2 sata hard disk. I have had WinXP installed on one of my IDE hard disk (an old 60 go Maxtor) for at least 1,5 year... time to reinstall! I'd like to reinstall on one of my sata drive (newest Maxtor DiamonMax 10, much faster drive!) and I simply CAN'T I always suceed to detect my hardisk in winxp installation, do the first step (copy files) but after the first reboot I ALWAYS get the same error: "windows could not start because of a computer disk hardware configuration problem" blablba I've done a lot of reading/searching and have tried several things 1-I've tried one of those DVD fully packaged with drivers, updates, softwares, etc... 2-I've tried to do my own CD of WinXP packaged with my sata drivers 3-I've tried an original CD of WinXP without any driver (my sata drives are detected) 4-I've tried to unplug all my IDE and sata drive except for the one I need 5-I've tried WinXP's repair console and bootcfg /repair 6-I've tried to manually edit my boot.ini I'm tired of this... i spent so many hours trying to install my winxp... I hope you have some good advice for me before I go crazt
