Perhaps this will help. From the first post on: http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=51140
" Annex for users with a non-Raid nForce RAID system
Although this guide is not designed for you, I will give you some informations:
* Windows XP SP2 should be able to detect SATA drives without any 3rd party drivers. So normally there is no reason to hit F6 or to integrate the nForce SATA drivers as TEXTMODE drivers.
* Nevertheless it is possible and useful to integrate the nForce SATA drivers into an nLited CD. The way is simple: Just integrate the content of the SATA_IDE subfolder of the actual nForce chipset driver package, which is designed for the special nForce SATA chipset of your mainboard (look at NVIDIA's driver page). This PnP driver integration is very easy with nLite. Just click at one of the INF files you find within the SATA_IDE folder, it doesn't matter which one.
* If your SATA drives are not detected at the beginning of the OS installation, you should make sure, that your SATA ports are enabled within BIOS.
* Some mainboards (for example ASUS ones) have no SATA, but SATARAID ports. Have a look into your mainboard manual, if you have to enable SATA and RAID within your BIOS, even when you have not built a RAID array.
Remark:
The [OemInfFiles] method for not WHQL certified drivers has been described the first time by PhreeZ in this thread.

I've tried both - those on the disk that came with the mobo & the latest revision from chipset mfr's site.

Use the same Nvidia driver series that installed then, not the latest ones.

I'm attempting to load XP Pro sp2 on an sata drive. I press F6 & select the drivers from the floppy furnished by the MB mfr for the NForce4 chipset. After setup runs for a period of time I get the message "setup cannot copy the file: nvatabus.sys". Repeated attempts result in the same message. Pressing ESC to skip brings up the same message but with different files - NVRAID.INF, IDECOI.DLL & NVATA.CAT. I've downloaded the latest NForce4 drivers but result in the same message. If anyone has any ideas I'd greatly appreciate the assistance. What is strange is that I didn't have problems the first time that I installed XP Pro sp2 on this channel with the same model of drive. (Hopefully this isn't going to result in an "MS said, NForce said" finger pointing contest.)
