HDD will not be recognized during windows XP Pro setup

Hello moderator,

I've tried to make a windows XP Pro CD with XP-Iso builder as you described on
the forum, but i think that the VIA VT8251 driver is not the right one, because
during the windows setup the HDD will not be recognized.

I have a Amilo Pi 1505, do you know which controller driver i need for detect
my HDD.

When i install the Windows Home edition, it will still worked.

Yours faithfully,
Hendrik-Jan Poort

I've just installed XP Pro on my new 1536. I used nLite to create a customized XP Pro CD with the SATA drivers (from Intel) embedded. Quite easy to make, just follow the guide. After that I had no problems with installing XP Pro.
