I got the Win XP 64 BIT OS from microsoft.Im having a
problum loading my SATA Drivers.Im using the CD to load
the OS,when it prompts me i hit F6 then when it asks for
the drivers i but in my floppy disk,pick the drivers i
want to use.It starts to load them but it said that are
corrupted.Ok mybe my floppy is bad.So i downloaded new
drivers and put them on a new floppy and it said the same
thing.

Does anyone here have the 64 bit os and have the same
problums??

Thx for any and all help

Greetings --

Are those SATA drivers designed by their manufacturer for the
specific 64-Bit version of WinXP that you're using?

You must make a floppy with the 64 bit drivers, NOT the 32 bit drivers.

Check your motherboard manufacturer's site or look at

Better yet, ask in the newsgroup for the 64 bit edition.

You'll get more answers if you'll ask in the XP 64-bit newsgroup.

I've exhausted my help since I don't have a SATA drive.

I know there have been a bunch of posts in that group on that topic,
did you go through all the archives?

I'm glad it's working for you but the URL above isn't a valid link?
Could you repost it so anyone else having your problem could find it?

Thanks!
