sandy123 Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 I am trying to install windows NT with a SATA hard disk. The Setup doesnt detect the sata drive and wants me to manually install the driver. Please can anyone help me with this? Any drivers? Here is what I am usingIntel 865GBFSegate 80GB sata driveThanks Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InTheWayBoy Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 I think you're just screwed...I could be wrong, but I don't think there is any support for SATA with NT. You could see if you can find an NT driver for your SATA controller, but given what I've read/heard you're up a creek man... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At0mic Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 (edited) Try Windows 2000 drivers. They might work. Edited September 22, 2005 by At0mic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gobby Posted September 22, 2005 Share Posted September 22, 2005 I'd give up ..... there is almost no chance of getting a SATA drive to work on NT4 - there are no drivers available for NT4, only 2000 and 2003 Server. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandy123 Posted September 23, 2005 Author Share Posted September 23, 2005 thanks for the reply. I will give those win 2000 sata drivers a shot, if they dont work I guess will have to buy a new PATA drive. Where do I get these SATA drivers for my motherboard? thanks for all the help!Sandy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
