Hi, I'm writing from Italy, since the Italian Tech newsgroup is not working
now... :-(
I just bought a Acer Aspire ASM5620Q, a very fast desktop with Vista that
comes with 2 SATA 500 GB Hard Drives.
So I thought to install XP Pro in the 2nd HD, and keep Vista in the 1st, and
use the BIOS option to select which drive has to boot the machine.
the problem is that XP installation CD does not contain the drivers for the
SATA controller! :-( so I searched in lots of forum, I found that using
nLite, is possible to make a copy of the XP CD that "incorporates" the SATA
drivers. I've done it, but it says that it cannot find the SATA drivers! :-[
does anyone had the same problem and has resolved it?
in case I manage to start the installation, is there any way I can install
on the XP image copy of my old (non-SATA) PC?
Thank you.
