Your card/hardware came with an installation/driver disk. During the
installation process follow the prompts (I think it is something like F6 but
it has been a while) and select to install a third party HDD/RAID driver. It
has been a long time but that's where you do it - during the install itself
before it gets anything even loaded.

I haven't used it, but you might try this. nLite.
Drivers can be integrated if they are in the right form (INF).
When finished, you have a new Windows installer CD.

Unless you want to slipstream the sata drivers into a new operating system
install cd, the answer is no, You have to press F6 and you have to have a
floppy drive for the drivers to be found. after pressing F6 pay close
attention to the screen, it will take a few minutes for the actually request
to mount the floppy drive with the drivers. Be Patient.

Every time I have gone through the process the answer has been yes. I
imagine there are some exceptions but so far so good.
