Hard Drive Boot Download - XP PRO?
There are programs that are available, to slipstream your XP OS disk in order to produce a boot disk. Any suggestions?
This disk created would aid in the resurrection of the ATA 60 GB Maxtor Hard Drive (jumper set to CS or Master – doesn't matter – same problem) XP Pro SP2 (NTFS) is installed on the drive.
XP Pro SP2 - Press enter to setup - this message occurs, "Setup could not find hard disk drives".
The hard worked prior to installing in a computer that was given to me. It had a pirated version of XP Pro. Later I found this computer also had defective RAM.
I have Slaved the HD in another computer, but the computer's OS does not detect the HD.
The BIOS detects the HD in all cases, but the OS will not load. I have the BIOS set to boot from the CD. If tried every way possible to boot this HD. The 80 pin IDE cable is plugged into the correct position. The HD sounds like it's spinning & gets warm after operating for 30 minutes. I know the computer is working, because I have unplugged its functioning HD & plugged this in this HD.

nLite...It is a lightweight program that has allowed me to slipstream the RAID drivers into my install disk. No need to press F6 or have a floppy drive for XP install. (None of my computers have a floppy drive) The Vista Version of the same program vLite is also a very good program. YOu can even set up your disk to perform a Silent install. Once you tell Windows Setup where to put Windows...walk away...the next time you come back to your computer you will be able to click on start.
nLite also works for XP x64 too...oh yeah...AND IT IS FREE!!!
