thomasjesp Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Hi, I have a laptop (Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo M1437G) without floppy so I need to integrate a SATA driver on my install CD. (unfortunately I lost my restore CD).I have tried to integrate it but when I boot I get told that Windows XP can't find any hard drive. I have previously installed Linux on the drive so does anybody know if I need to wipe the drive or do anything in order that the Windows XP can see a linux formatted drive?Here is my nLite session attached:Last_Session.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 1 Posted November 10, 2007 Share Posted November 10, 2007 Which S-ATA driver did you integrate and which S-ATA Controller did you highlight when you got the textmode driver popup window? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomasjesp Posted November 11, 2007 Author Share Posted November 11, 2007 Which S-ATA driver did you integrate and which S-ATA Controller did you highlight when you got the textmode driver popup window?I have tried both the SATA drivers at fujitsu siemens site and the generic VIA VT6421 drivers at viaarena.com. I made sure to integrate the win xp versions.I never got a popup during the textmode installation (I assume you are talking about the installation when you say textmode), all I get is a message that my harddrive is not found and the system will reboot.

AgiHammerklau Posted November 11, 2007 Share Posted November 11, 2007 Do you want to keep the Linux partition ?´cause windows is still "blind" about them, even though MS went into the Linuxsector.Agi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
