Install SATA drive on MT6705 problems

[hungviet183]

'm downgrading Vista to XP and I met some problems. When I inserted Windows XP CD, it can't process anymore (didn't recognize hard-drive) because missing SATA/RAID driver. I searched on the support website and it said that I couldn't downgrade Windows XP with MT6705 laptop series (Gateway laptop - Seagate ST9120822AS hard-drive). Would you please to help me find the driver for SATA/RAID (MT6705) that I can use in TEXTMODE (setup Windows XP and press F6)? My laptop even didn't have floppy-disk so I couldn't load driver for SATA/RAID.

I used nLite (http://nliteos.com/) to integrate SATA/RAID driver from Intel (Intel 82801GBM SATA AHCI Controller (Mobile ICH7M) for this hard-drive) to my XP CD. I tested that XP CD on Vista Home Pre by Vmware 6 WS. It ran perfectly. But when I inserted XP CD and reboot laptop for installing on HDD, it said that it couldn't recognize the driver for Sata drive.

What can I do now and how I fix that?

Thanks for your interests.

Im not realy sure if this will help

I downloaded the drivers from Gateways site

and pulled the drivers from the install dir

c:/windows/temp/iif/winall

It looks like they are TXTSETUP drivers

but not having your hardware I cant be sure

intergrate the driver with nlite and use the

CTRL key to select all the drivers (just to be sure)

below is 32 bit drivers
