Silly question, how do i use these file when installing windows? Thanks for the help

Hi, My HDD died and I have replaced with a diamondmax 10 250gb SATA II. I've tried to set it up on A8N-SLI deluxe m/b on Nvidia SATA controller (not raid config), however when I install windows, it copies files across reboots and then hangs after post screen with os missing / cannot find etc, If I install on old IDE driver it works fine. I've tred to ghost that across to new direve but that does not work. The SATA drive work fine as additional devices. I have orig copy of windows XP sp2. All current drivers. I've tried using drivers on floppy at F6, ghosting old drive, formatting with maxblast 4, then installing. It's driving me mad, any ideas greatly apprectiated, Thanks Please NOW in Microsoft Windows XP section, use [TAGS] in your topic's title. See rules. --Sonic
