(5) Installing SATA controller driver during OS installation
Now that you have prepared the SATA driver disk and configured BIOS settings, you are ready to install
Windows 2000/XP onto your SATA hard drive with the SATA driver. The following is an example of

you see the "Press F6 if you need to install a 3rd party SCSI or RAID driver" message (Figure 17). After
pressing F6, there will be a few moments of some files being loaded before you see the next screen.
