It's not quite the same issue here. The problem is when installing XP. XP doesn't want to install because it doesn'T find any HDD. This is only with my unattended CD. Thanks for your input !

Hi all I hope that anyone will have an idea why my unattended Windows installation CD doesn't reconize my HDD. I have a CD that I splitstream the major brand SataRaid drivers (via, intel and nVidia). The Via woks fine. The problem I have is with my Nvidia. I have donwloaded the drivers from MSI (My board it the K9N Neo) and I put the drivers in the $OEM$\$1\Drivers\nvidia 's folder. I added this path without the $OEM$\$1 to the winnt.sif file. OemPnPDriversPath="drivers\vmware;Drivers\nvidia;Drivers\3112;Drivers\3114;Drivers\intel;Drivers\intel2;Drivers\via;Drivers\promise;Drivers\sis;Drivers\ite" In txtsetup.sif, I add the following lines: [HardwareIds.scsi.RAIDCLASS] id = "GenNvRaidDisk","nvraid" id = "*_NVRAIDBUS","nvraid" id = "*NVRAIDBUS","nvraid" [HardwareIds.scsi.BUSDRV] id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_008E", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00D5", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00EE", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_00E3", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0036", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_003E", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0054", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0055", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0266", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0267", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_036F", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_037E", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_037F", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_03F6", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_03F7", "nvatabus" id = "PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_03E7", "nvatabus" [scsi.load] RAIDCLASS = nvraid.sys,4 BUSDRV = nvatabus.sys,4 .... [sCSI] RAIDCLASS = "NVIDIA RAID CLASS DRIVER (required)" BUSDRV = "NVIDIA nForce Storage Controller (required)" ... [sourceDisksFiles] nvatabus.sys = 1,,,,,,4,4,1,,,1,4 nvraid.sys = 1,,,,,,4,4,1,,,1,4 nvraid.inf = 1,,,,,,,20,0,0 ... I have copied the three files in the sourcedisksfiles section into the i386 folder and renamed the extension to replace the last letter by an "_" Upon boot-up, the installation goes through the loading phase without errors ( I even see the two Nvidia going through). At the end, the screen flicks and I get the error message that Windows didn't find any Hard disk. What the hell is the problem. I know that the drivers are good because I put them on a floppy, boot with an old standard XP SP1 CD, presssed F6 and I was able to install XP on my machine. I am usualy able to dig up solution but this one made me hit the bottom. I really don't know what it is. Please help Thanks
