Thanks for the reply. Just made another disc (XP SP3 with AHCI) and now it works. You say 'whether the Repair option would appear is dependent on what you specified in the Unattended section.' How so?

Not a common problem then? Let me put it another way: have users integrated AHCI drivers ok? Ok being when booting from it, you get the 'Welcome to Setup' screen where you can press ENTER, R or F3, and after that and the Licensing Agreement screen you get a screen that identifies the installation correctly. Thanks.

Wanted to create a disc with XP SP3 with AHCI drivers. However after a couple of attempts I've got a problem. When I boot with the disc it loads the driver, but I am taken straight to a screen where it (correctly) identifies the partitions. What it doesn't do is recognize that one of the partitions holds an existing installation of windows, so a repair install would not be possible. My last attempt only integrated SP3 and the AHCI drivers; there were no other changes. The base disc was XP SP1a OEM. nLite version 1.4.9. Thanks.
