Guys I am building a new pc for a friend. I have installed Windows XP SP3 twice with no problem with SATA mode set to IDE and 'compatibility'. As soon as I try to install Windows XP with SATA mode set to RAID or AHCI using the drivers from fdd (F6 install - tried both sets of drivers RAID and AHCI) it blue screens during installation!, normally just before it restarts after copying files, all stop errors equate to driver/configuration issues!
He needs SATA RAID/AHCI to be available as he requirs to 'hotplug' his eSATA drives!
I remember having a similar problem on a P35 board with ICH9R and older SATA/RAID installation drivers solved the problem! Any help would be appreciated!
Spec:
LGA 775 for Intel® Core™ 2 Extreme / Core™ 2 Quad / Core™ 2 Duo / Pentium® Dual Core / Celeron®, supporting Penryn Quad Core Yorkfield and Dual Core Wolfdale processors
All Solid Capacitor design (100% Japan-made high-quality Conductive Polymer Capacitors)
Intel® P45 + ICH10R Chipsets
Compatible with FSB 2000/1600/1333/1066/800MHz
Supports Dual Channel DDR3 1333/1066 (4 x DIMM slots) with max. capacity up to 8GB and Dual Channel DDR2 1066/800/667 (2 x DIMM slots) with max. capacity up to 8GB
Supports ATI™ CrossFire™
2 x PCI Express 2.0 x16 slots (green @ x16 mode, blue @ x8 mode)
6 x SATAII 3.0 Gb/s connectors, support RAID (RAID 0, RAID 1, RAID 10, RAID 5 and Intel® Matrix Storage), NCQ, AHCI and Hot Plug functions
2 x eSATAII 3.0 Gb/s connectors
2 x PCIE Gigabit LAN 10/100/1000 Mb/s
Supports 2 x IEEE1394 ports (one port on back panel, one header on board)
Thanks in advance,
