Ok thanks for all the help guys. I shall try to be a little more explicit whit my problem. First of all I want to apologize for not listing the HD along with other components. My HD is a brand new Seagate U Series 9 ST380012A - 80 GB - ATA-100. -It is connected to my MotherBoard by an 80 Conductor ATA/66 Cable. -It is set to Primary Master. @ Sp0iLedBrAt, I know, sorry about the mix-up, but I pressed F6 only when trying to load the drivers from floppy. Regarding nLite and the CD session the drivers were all integrated as PnP into nLite. The problem occurs while setup is starting Windows. When booting from nLite Win XP CD I get the following error: STOP: 0X0000007B (0XF8980524, 0XC0000034, 0X00000000, 0X00000000) When loading IDE Drivers from Floppy Disk: The file txtsetup.oem could not be found etc... @ Ponch, the HD is not showing in BIOS.... my CD is not original. I had Win 98 Original for this computer. The XP copy I am using has been previously tested on this and other equipments.

Hello, I am trying to do a fresh install of Windows XP Pro on my old computer. Problem is I keep getting the following error upon booting from my WindowsXP Pro SP3 CD: Setup did not find any hard disk drives installed in your computer I downloaded the IDE Drivers from MSI website and updated my BIOS to latest version (V1.5). I have tried adding the downloaded drivers into an nLite session but when loading the drivers (after pressing F6) Windows installation unexpectedly quits. Also when loading the drivers from a Floppy Disk i get the following error: The file txtsetup.oem could not be found etc... Specifications: MotherBoard: CPU: Intel P4 2.40 GHz Model : MS-6585 V 1.0 // MSI 648 Max Chipset: SiS® 648 (839 pin BGA) // AGP 8X Videocard: MSI G4MX440-VTD8X BIOS: AMIBIOS V 1.50 Complete specifications, BIOS, and drivers can be viewed/downloaded here: http://www.msi.com/index.php?func=proddesc&maincat_no=1&prod_no=501 Not sure if I need another version of the drivers or if I have to manually add this file to my root folder in floppy. I would really appreciate any help with this problem. Thanks in advance. Roger
