I have 2 SATA drives one I've already installed Win 2K on via a borrowed floppy drive which I don't have any more. But I'm trying to install the new drive using nlite with an updated XP disc having slipstreamed the VIA 8237 driver using this path: VRAID_Driver_V550B\VRAIDDrv\drvdisk\x86\NT5 pointing nlite to the VIAMRAID andhaving moved the txtsetup.oem file into the same folder. I have also slipstreamed SP2 for my AV8 board but it doesn't detect the new drive (i have just swapped over my first SATA with the new one). But when I use original drive using the updated XP install disc it detects the drive and can see the partitions. Where am I going wrong. I am new to all this slipstreaming business and could do with a pointer in the right direction. Is my new drive knackered?

I know I could go and buy a new floppy but I think I'm really close in getting this all to work

Any help appreciated.......
