Winnt.sif

[Zaraki Kenpachi]

Hi guys , I am currently new here! hello

Btw I need some help with slipstreaming the SATA drivers , I don't know if I am posting in the right section,

Here's the problem , I read from a site, it teaches me how to slipstream the SATA drivers into winxp home , I do that that because I don't have Floppy drive for F6 installation .

So I proceed with the guide , on the first part, it wanted me to edit the Winnt.sif file , then I search through the folder which I copy over from the XPCD , but I can't seems to find it , I tried using the search function to search for it , but still no where to be found , so I was wondering if you guys can help me with this ? Must I create the winnt.sif file?

Another thing is can I use Nlite to slipstream? Is it easiler to do it this way? Can it be done? Or I just follow the above guide to do it? Was trying very hard to figuring out , I am trying to slipstream Intel ICH8 sata/raid drivers into the winxp home sp2 cd.

Thanks a lot!

First of all Welcome to MSFN Forums.

If u use NLite, it would be quite easier for u to include drivers. But if u want to do it manually here it is,

For winnt.sif part, you will not find it in the CD, and yes u will have to create it by using support tools in your XP CD.

Extract the "setupmgr" and "ref" files on your Hard Disk. Run setupmgr to create a new answer file through a wizard and at last save this text file as winnt.sif.

For manual SATA drivers, read "RAID/SATA" drivers section under Device Drivers Introduction.
