We come through a lot of problems in installing our own Operating Systems in our laptops, like “Setup did not find any hard disk drives installed in your computer”, etc. Here I have given a solution that will definitely solve these problems. Here we create our own Windows installation CD/DVD which will include all the drivers, etc. we want like the SATA driver. We have already seen one solution to this problem which uses the BIOS facility to activate the installation. The solution was a simple one but it is not ideal for some laptops.
Step 1: Copy your Windows installation disc into some folder in your hard drive. Here I named my folder as WINXP.
Step 2: Open nLite. Click Next.
Step 4: It will show the details of your installation. Click Next.
Step 7: Now click insert and select multiple driver option.
Step 8: You can browse and select the driver folder you want to integrate. Select All and OK.
Step 9: It will show you the details of the driver. Select All and Click Ok. After that cllick next. It will ask for confirmation. Click Yes.
Now you have successfully completed integrating the driver. You can use this CD for installation in any laptop where the SATA native is not supported.
You can use nLite for any purpose like integrating components, etc.
You can download the Intel SATA AHCI drivers from:
