Hello Fernando,

I Install WinXP Professional 32-bit on the ASUS X54C i3-2330M and
I want to use AHCI instead of IDE. In order to do this I need to find a driver for:

VEN_8086 & DEV_1C01

Intel ® 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family 4 port Serial ATA Storage Controller - 1C01
Intel ® 6 Series/C200 Series Chipset Family 2 port Serial ATA Storage Controller - 1C09


I've seen that in case of the same driver users downloaded some drivers from Intel website:
http://downloadcente...t.aspx?lang=eng

but all my attempts to select the appropriate device failed
(I'm not familiar enough with this subject and didn't find an appropriate options combination).

The only drive which I found is for Intel chipset, but it didn't help.


PS
As far as I understand I need a file like iaAHCI.inf with VEN_8086 & DEV_1C01
inside of it.

Maybe you (or anybody) can help to find this driver?


Thanks a lot!

@ JenniferArden:
Hello Jennifer,
AFAIK there is no 64bit AHCI textmode driver collection available. The reason may be, that XP x64 has never been very popular.
Furthermore the XP x64 installation onto an actual AHCI system may fail with a BSOD, if you integate a big variety of different AHCI textmode drivers from different chipset manufacturers.
That is why I always recommend to integrate just the single textmode driver, which suits the on-board AHCI or RAID Controller.
By the way: You can find the download links to many actual AHCI/RAID drivers for Windows XP x64 within the start post of >this< German Forum thread (look into the chapter beginning with the word "Links ..."!).


@ atztek:
Welcome at MSFN Forums!
Now to your question:
Your ASUS laptop has an Intel 6-series chipset. So if you want to prepare a Windows XP CD with integrated Intel AHCI driver, you should

• download the 32bit Intel RST textode driver v11.2.0.1006 WHQL, which I have linked within the start post of this thread,
  
• integrate the unzipped driver by pointig to the file iaAHCI.inf and
  
• highlight the listed "Intel® Mobile Express Chipset SATA AHCI Controller", when you get the textmode driver popup window.

No, DEV_1C01 is the DeviceID of your laptop's Intel SATA Controller running in IDE mode. What you need is the support of the DeviceID DEV_1C03 = "Intel® Mobile Express Chipset SATA AHCI Controller".

Kind regards
Fernando

Hi Fernando

Thank you very much for the information, I think this will help me a lot - it looks like a good collection to me.

Thank you very much again,

Jennifer

Fernando, maybe you can help me.
I bought a computer Portégé Z835-P330 and I'm trying to install Windows XP on it. I downloaded the SATA driver on the Toshiba site. First, I tried to integrate this driver with the program nLite. Now, I'm trying an F6 install with floppy drive, but, when I go to specify additional device, I get a message saying the file TXTSETUP.OEM could not be found.

Toshiba Portégé Z835-P330 Ultrabook Specifications & Features:

Processor Intel® Core i3 2367M Processor
Operating System Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Chipset Intel® QS67 Express Chipset

@ ZEqNkuT:
Welcome at MSFN Forum!

Why don't you just follow my guide (= start post of this thread) and integrate the linked "32bit Intel RST textmode driver v11.2.0.1006 WHQL"?
Tip:
If you are still able to run Win7 with your laptop, open the "IDE ATA/ATAPI Controller" and - if applicable - the "Storage Controllers" section of the Device Manager. Which are the exact names of the listed SATA Controllers (besides the "Standard Dual Channel PCI IDE Controller")?
This may help to find the SATA Controller details (AHCI/RAID) of your laptop.

Regards
Fernando

Hi all,

I would like to report back on my project of XP x64:

I have finished customizing XP after a week of working day and night, XP now feature a modern visual style, improved logon UI, custom msgina.dll, shell32.dll etc, loads of drivers and updates (IE8, MP11 and post SP2 updates)

XP is now running perfectly and very fast (much faster than XP x86) on my acer Aspire 7740G laptop. Even hibernation is very fast with 5GB RAM. It is a pleasure to work on my laptop now. If anyone would like the customized visual style for x86 and x64 it is available at no cost.

Fernando,

On the "IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers" appear only two drivers:
"Intel® Mobile Express Chipset SATA AHCI Controller" and
"Ricoh PCIe SDXC/MMC Host Controller".
Nothing else.

Thanks for the force.

So that means, that you can integrate the actual 32bit Intel RST AHCI driver v11.2.0.1006 WHQL according to my guide.
When you get the textmode driver popup windows and are asked, which SATA Controller shall be supported, just choose the listed "Intel® Mobile Express Chipset SATA AHCI Controller" .
Then everything will be fine with the later XP installation.

Fernando,
I've tried everything, I'm trying for a month, but can not in any way.

There must be some trick to install Windows XP on Z835.

What I did was basically the following, the last time I tried:
I joined your driver with nLite using a clean Windows XP CD; then, I recorded the system with its built-in driver in flash memory, using FlashBoot 2.1s. The XP installation starts normally, but it is interrupted at a given time: the BSOD appears, accusing the 0x7B error.
Nor is realized with the FDD F6 install: the message that appears is of the txtsetup.oem file is not found.
Cheers, thanks for listening.

Forget the pendrive. Burn a CD and install from it.

Alright, so I have managed to successfully install Windows XP 64 bit, onto my hard drive. Now I am having a issue with my Windows 7 OS (keyboard and mouse not working at logon screen), so I have been using the Windows XP for a while.
Anyways, earlier today my external hard drive got the "click of death", so I took it out of its box, to make it an "internal" disk, to see if it helped with the constant clicking. But to do this, I had to install the Marvell SATA drivers, so I did. (for best speed rate)
After rebooting, I got the Windows XP loading screen, but then it just turns black.. Nothing there, no mouse cursor, no nothing. I have been reading a lot around the web, but did not find a solution as of now... So, to my "main" problem, if you don't have any solutions for the XP and Win7 issues.
I had some problems with 64-bit version of Windows XP, so I decided to just wipe the Windows XP 64-bit HDD, and install Windows XP 32-bit on it. BUT! Whenever I slipstream the drivers (32bit ofc), onto an OEM version of Windows XP 32 bit (SP3 integrated), I get the 07b BSOD again. And I am 100% sure that it is an UNTOUCHED Windows XP 32-bit SP3 OEM DVD, because its downloaded from Microsofts MSDN page.
You have any idea why it's constantly giving me this BSOD, even with the drivers slipstreamed? I tried doing exactly as I did with the Windows XP 64-bit installation that worked, but no luck... Also tried switching the SATA ports a couple of times, but still doesn't work.
Thank you for your time and patience, and hope that you can help me once again!

EDIT: I got into my old Windows XP 64-bit OS, by removing the clicking hard drive, and booting into safe mode. So I'm only curious to why the 32-bit OEM installation is giving me BSOD; even though I have slipstreamed the 32-bit SATA drivers for Intel chipset.

It is only to say two things: I do not give up, I'll keep trying, after all I must be missing something... and also that I am very grateful to everyone in the forum.
A hug, anything new I will not fail to mention here.

If you have integrated the same AHCI driver version as 32bit model, which had worked with XP x64, the BSOD has been caused by something else.
What about your RAM sticks? Did you already check them with MemTest? If you have more than 1 RAM stick, have you tried to remove all other RAM sticks before you began with the OS installation?
What about your PSU? Is it good and strong enough for your system?
What about Overclocking? An OS installation should always been done with the default BIOS settings regarding the CPU clock/voltage and Memory timings/voltage.

Just to eliminate a bad XP source as reason for your problems you should borrow a clean XP CD from a friend (without using his CD Key) and to take this borrowed XP CD as source for a new nLited XP CD with integrated Intel textmode driver.

Good luck!

Hey, thanks for the reply once again Fernando.
I figured out the constant bsod problem. It was actually my USB 3.0 that wouldn't go in XP (not surprised there..), so I changed the ports for my USB 3.0, and tried, this time it worked with no BSOD, BUT the installation was EXTREMELY slow.. As in 20% in about 1-2 hours.. I let it sit for the night, installing, but when I woke up, the installation screen was gone, and it was just stuck at my motherboard logo loading, rebooted it, to see if it would continue the installation process, but now it can't find the ntoskrnl.exe, and my other Windows XP 64 is not working either. I'm guessing that's because of the Windows 32-bit installation screwed with some boot settings.

So, how do I go for getting the installation in normal speed? I tried slipstreaming the USB 3.0 drivers, but didn't help, still got the BSOD. I also tried changing SATA ports / cables, still didn't make the process any faster.
The HD I'm trying to install Windows XP 32-bit on, is a Western Digital WD10EAVS Caviar Green Hard Drive - 1TB, 3.5", 8MB, SATA-300 HD, and it's split up in 3 volumes. 1 for Windows 7, 1 for Data and 1 for Windows XP.

PS. I have been looking around the net for a solution, but they just refer to slipstreaming the SATA drivers, which I already did.. Oh and yes, the SATA mode is at AHCI
Any help would be appreciated as always. And thanks again for all the support!

hello 1st post, thanks for any info in advance. have not read all 60 pages yet. like many, I am searching for correct sata controller driver/s or modded pack since I have limited access to floppy........I have nlite program loaded in another pc.........I just installed a new SATA HDD in my dell desktop. I have a 530s and oem disc that came with it (xp home edition sp2). I have the g33 express chipset and ICH9. I notice in my bios sata settings, I am offered either RAID or IDE. if I can be directed to the correct control drivers. I would like to try and intergrate to the os cd. if these drivers are too difficult to obtain, I am just going to purchase another os and start over. thanks again,sincerely TOM.

Why don't you burn a bootable XP CD using the already prepared ISO file with the integrated AHCI driver and boot off that media?
The problem of an USB stick as boot media is the fact, that the XP Setup may try to write the boot sector onto it.

If you don't have the BIOS option to set the SATA Controllers to "AHCI" mode, you should install Windows XP in "IDE" mode and don't need to integrate any special SATA driver. The Windows XP SP2 Setup will detect your HDD without any problem.

Atm I don't have any DVD/CD-ROM.. So you have any other solutions to the slow installation?

Try it once more from scratch with the USB stick, but this time remove the stick during the first reboot.

thanks for help F. I am so new to any of this, sorrry, from the begining, I could no longer log into windows page about a week ago,no safe mode either......pc was working very nice before this. I ran a diagnostic test from driver/utility disk that came with pc, and it pointed to an uncorrectable error. I format drive with a usb adapter kit on another pc and drive failed tests again so I purchased a new HDD. for some reason my oem os reinstall cd is not recognized in my cd/rom?but my driver / utility cd is?. I have a newer lap top that can see it fine though?...........some info,from (F-12) boot menu, choices are removable -floppy disk. next, 2 choices under hard disk. -sato-0 : wdc wd3200AAKX (new HDD) and -bootable add in cards. next choices are cd rom and utility partition. I elect cd rom but i get no boot device available with os disk. sato-0 installed,sato-1 installed, sato 4 and 5 read none. in my std cmos features,sato-0 my new and only HDD with correct 320GB capacity. sato-1 reads{HL-DT-ST DVD+/-RW GS} 0 capacity. sato 2 and 3 not present. 4 and 5 none.......I ran a diagnostics on new HDD and it passed all tests.not sure any of that info helps, but thought I would add it. .....I decided to try and use some zip files for ich9 and made a copy of my os disk with some drivers attached with nlite . it kind of worked! my cd rom drive read it and I went through the steps to load the operating system.... heres where the trouble starts, when I get to the part where pc is going to restart and run from HDD, I get unmountable-boot-volume........tried all the fixes, chkdsk/r,p fixboot,mbr............no luck. error is oxoooooed, followed by other #'s. sorrry for the long post, I am sure I left some things out. last info, I am in ide mode, reloaded defaults, my desktop is a 4 year old inspiron with intel G33 express chipset ICH9 6-port. thanks F vey impressive thread you have here!!! TOM. p.s. is it possible that the july 9 midnight deadline for fbi virus killed this pc? timing would have been perfect. I failed to test any of my pc's as all had nod32 antivirus5?....just burned a new copy of my oem xp sp2 he install disk WITHOUT adding any drivers from zipfile and it also failed to be recognized.

@ tdwilson:

As long as you have set the SATA Controller to "IDE" mode, you should be able to get Windows XP with integrated SP2 or SP3 installed onto your system without having loaded or integrated any special driver.
To avoid any problems while trying to get XP installed onto your new hdd by booting off the XP CD, you should unplug or disable all other bootable devices except the CD/DVD ROM and the new hdd.
Other option: Enter the BIOS and make sure the correct boot order:

• Boot Devices: The order must be 1. CD/DVD ROM and 2. HDD
  
• HDD Boot Order ("HARD DISK BOOT PRIORITY"): Your new hdd has to be on top!

Another idea:
Please give me the vendor and the exact name of your desktop pc. Then I can look for the best suitable AHCI driver for your system.

Fernando
