Trouble installing SATA drive on XP HELP!!!
i lost the floppy that came w/ my mobo so i went to the mobo's site (abitusa) and d/l their sata drivers here: http://www.abit-usa.com/products/mb/...es=1&model=175
step by step here is what i did: d/l the drivers. unzipped the file. after unzipping the file it created a folder w/ drivers for intel, silicon, and via then there was a file called txtsetup.oem sitting in there w/ the sub folders. I transferred the whole folder to a formatted floppy disk rebooted machine, ran windows cd rom pushed f6 to install sata drives inserted floppy and pushed enter when prompted a message appears that says could not find txtsetup.oem (even though i know it is on the floppy!) am i missing a step??? i have a few ideas that could make this work...i was going to try these, but if someone could save me the headache i'd appreciate it! i was thinking maybe use an unformatted disk, try copying just the "via drivers folder" to the floppy, etc... but can anyone think of why i am getting the could not find txtsetup.oem error???
