I'm trying to install Windows XP on a floppyless ASUS F3Sc notebook, and of course I'm stuck on the SATA drivers problem. I've tried nLite and XPCREATE, both without success.
Following the protocol, here is my XPCREATE.ini file:
They come with 2 folders, complete and essencial. I've put both into \drivers folder.
complete contents are:
[.] iaahci.inf iastor.sys readme.txt
[..] iastor.cat license.txt SWI.xml
iaahci.cat iastor.inf [PREPARE] txtsetup.oem
essential contents are:
[.] iaahci.cat iastor.cat iastor.sys
[..] iaahci.inf iastor.inf txtsetup.oem
My SATA controller, according to EVEREST:
Intel® 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller
The Windows XP installation says that no drivers were detected.
PS: As I said, I'm just trying to install Windows XP. If there are any easier ways to do it by using a pendrive or something like that, please teach me. I don't really need an unattended installation.

Hi guys,
I'm trying to install Windows XP on a floppyless ASUS F3Sc notebook, and of course I'm stuck on the SATA drivers problem. I've tried nLite and XPCREATE, both without success.

And here is my WINNT.sif file, put into \I386:
I get those drivers from Intel:
intel82801HEMSATA
They come with 2 folders, complete and essencial. I've put both into \drivers folder.
complete contents are:
[.] iaahci.inf iastor.sys readme.txt
[..] iastor.cat license.txt SWI.xml
iaahci.cat iastor.inf [PREPARE] txtsetup.oem
essential contents are:
[.] iaahci.cat iastor.cat iastor.sys
[..] iaahci.inf iastor.inf txtsetup.oem
My SATA controller, according to EVEREST:
Intel® 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller
The Windows XP installation says that no drivers were detected.
PS: As I said, I'm just trying to install Windows XP. If there are any easier ways to do it by using a pendrive or something like that, please teach me. I don't really need an unattended installation.
