Integrar Drivers Sata/raid/scsi no cd de instalação do WindowsXP

" Setup did not find any hard disk drives installed in your computer when installing Windows XP."
Você precisa de fazer o donwload dos drivers SATA RAID, extraí-lo para a disquete e, em seguida, ao instalar XP, é necessário pressionar F6 para instalar o driver RAID.
No entanto os novos pc's nao trazem drive de disquetes
.
É
um desperdício de comprar uma unidade de disquetes USB externo apenas a utilizar para instalar o Windows XP.

A fim de não utilizar o unidade de disquetes, você pode integrar o disquete SATA RAID driver no Windows XP CD.
Dessa forma, você pode instalar o Windows XP Num disco rígido SATA sem usar a disquete. Você precisa ter XP CD ou os arquivos fontes (i386) no seu computador, a disquete SATA RAID driver que pode ser descarregado a partir do site do fabricante da motherboard e um CD / DVD virgem.
Aqui estão os passos.
1. Download and install nLite
2. Download SATA driver from manufacturer website and extract it to a new folder.
My motherboard is MSI, so I downloaded the SATA driver from MSI.
3. Run nLite and select the language that you want to display in nLite
4. Specify the Windows XP installation files. If there is a i386 folder at the root of your drive, most probably that can be used. If not, enter your XP CD and browse your disc drive letter. Click Next once done.
5. Click Next again when you’re at Presets.
6. At Task Selection, click Drivers and Bootable ISO . Click Next.
7. Now click Insert button, select “ Multiple driver folder “, choose the folder with extracted drivers and click OK.
Select the shown drivers to integrate. Do not select 64 bit drivers on a 32 bit Windows XP.
Click OK when done selecting the drivers. Click Next.
8. You’ll need to choose the exact type of hardware and OS if listed.
A few textmode integration options will be listed.
You can check the manufacturer’s website to know which chipset is being used.
Select the drivers and click OK and then click Next.
9. Click Yes when asked “ Do you want to start the process? ” The driver integration wouldn’t take more than a minute.
Click Next when done.
10. At the next screen you can create a bootable ISO to burn to CD/DVD, or you can even burn to CD directly using “Direct Burn”.
Congratulations! You now have a new Windows XP CD/DVD that contains SATA RAID drivers. Boot your laptop or desktop with the new XP CD and install as normal.

How to Build a Windows XP SP3 Integrated Installation CD

You need:

  1. Old/original Windows XP installation CD (any of SP0 to SP2 will do even though only those from SP2 are supported officially). Make sure to use build 5512 or above.
  2. Microsoft Windows SP3
  3. unzipper like WinRar, unrar for Linux / Ubuntu or the like
  4. ISO creator / CD burn program like mkisofs, InfraRecorder, UltraISO, Basero (or others) or even old school
  5. Boot image exctracted using BBIE or use this (also see Box.net box below)
  6. ~ 1 GB free tmp space on disk

You do:

  1. Extract / copy old Windows CD’s content (including hidden files!) to one folder (e.g. c:\XPCD)
  2. extract SP3’s content to another folder (e.g. c:\XPSP3) using e.g. unrar, winrar or hit Win+R and type

    1. c:\XPSP3\windowsxp-kb936929-sp3-x86-enu.exe –x

    and select target folder, here c:\XPSP3

  3. To slipstream the old CD do Win+R and copy+paste or type

    1. c:\XPSP3\i386\update\update.exe /integrate:c:\XPCD
  4. Create bootable CD image or CD using the boot image and your updated folder c:\XPCD. I recommend using mkisofs (Windows or Linux executable) using

    1. mkisofs \
    2. -b cdboot/msboot.img -no-emul-boot -boot-load-seg 1984 -boot-load-size 4 \
    3. -iso-level 2 -J -l -D -N -joliet-long -relaxed-filenames \
    4. -V "WINSP" \
    5. -o ../winsp.iso .

    from within the root folder of the CD to be, i.e. c:\XPCD. Create a new folder there and drop your boot image, i.e. cdboot/msboot.img.

  5. Done.

You might want to try booting from the image using VirtualBox.

Ethernet controller - Virtual Box & Windows Vista

Vista no longer supports the AMD ethernet adapter VBox emulates, but you can find a driver for Vista on the Guest Additions ISO. Just click Install Guest Additions from the VM's Devices menu to load the disc into Vista. Although the additions install automatically, you will have to manually install the drivers for networking from the device manager. This is covered in more detail in the user manual.
