Installing WinXP SATA Driver without floppy

by simon.pendlebury@ticketli . Updated 18 years, 7 months ago

Hi,

I have just been asked to purchase a specific laptop for my MD, but it has MCE installed. I want to do a clean install with XP Pro but it has an unsupported disk controller.

Being a new laptop, it doesn’t have a FDD. Is there a way to install the third party driver without using a floppy, or am I going to have to invest in a USB floppy drive? I have searched the MS Knowledge base and Googled for it but can’t find anything.

Thanks in advance,

Si
