Add NVIDIA Drivers
1 Extract the NVIDIA driver files from the nForce package using '-x' option.
2 Copy all *.sys, *.dll, *.inf and *.cat files from "...\IDE\WinXP\sataraid" to "c:\
slipstream\XP\i386".
3 Edit "c:\slipstream\XP\i386\txtsetup.sif" and add the following
a Under [WinntDirectories] section add:
b Directly under header [SourceDisksFiles] add the following lines:
c Now add the device IDs for your SATA controller directly under the
NVIDIA Corporation
300 = nvidia\nvraid
This will add a directory to hold the storage driver files.
nvraidco.dll = 1,,,,,,,300,0,0
nvraid.sys
= 1,,,,,,,300,0,0
nvraid.inf
= 1,,,,,,,300,0,0
nvraid.cat
= 1,,,,,,,300,0,0
NvAtaBus.sys = 1,,,,,,,300,0,0
idecoi.dll
= 1,,,,,,,300,0,0
NvAtaBus.sys = 100,,,,,,,4,0,0,,1,4
nvraid.sys
= 100,,,,,,,4,0,0,,1,4
This tells installer to copy all driver files to ʺ%systemroot%\nvidia\nvraidʺ and
then the two .sys files to ʺ%systemroot%\system32\driversʺ
[HardwareIdsDatabase] section.
This will tell OS which drivers to load for SATA controllers on your platform.
You can get this information from the file nvraid.inf. Search for "[NVIDIA]" and
you should see something like the following:
[NVIDIA]
%CK804SSS%=Crush11_Inst,PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0055&CC_0104
%CK804SSS%=Crush11_Inst,PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0054&CC_0104
%NVRAID_DESC%=nvraid,GenNvRaidDisk
%NVRAID_BUS_DESC%=nvraidbus,*_NVRAIDBUS
%NVRAID_BUS_DESC%=nvraidbus,*NVRAIDBUS
You will require an entry for each of these lines in the following format.
[HardwareIdsDatabase]
PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0054 = "nvatabus"
PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0055 = "nvatabus"
