Installing SATA Driver

[DorG]

The drivers needed are from the Mobo right

got an asus a7n8x-e deluxe

Silicon Image Serial ATA driver version V1.0.0.50 WHQL and Serial ATA Utility V1.1.3

I don't really need that unattended, but if its possible, even better.

I'd like to know how you can still press f6 during install, but have winxp unattented, all settings filled in auto like language, keyboard, network... and after that unattend install apps.

Only prob I have is how to do the raid thingy

You need to make sure the beginning of your WINNT.SIF is like this:

;SetupMgrTag
[Data]
    AutoPartition=0
    MsDosInitiated="0"
    UnattendedInstall="Yes"
    AutomaticUpdates=yes

[Unattended]
    Repartition=No
    UnattendMode=FullUnattended
    DriverSigningPolicy=Ignore
    OemSkipEula=Yes
    OemPreinstall=Yes
    UnattendSwitch="yes"
    TargetPath=\WINDOWS
    WaitForReboot="No"
    KeyboardLayout="United Kingdom"

and this will then allow F6 before continuing Unattended..

Then read all the topics related to SI3112r in this part of the forum.

And why the heck are you posting the same thing in two diferrent forums????

edit........SI3112r

[DorG]

There are several topics for adding raid drivers to your cd in this forum. Use the search function to get your answer.

I doesn't matter since in wmware you can not test sata drivers; it emulates a standard Intel BX chipset, together with a standard IDE driver.

You need to do real setup to test these drivers.
