Hello,

I loaded XP on my XPS 1330, and because it uses sata drives, I had to change the mode before installing XP. Because of how I went about this, the SATA drivers were never loaded, and now if I try to boot in SATA mode, it gets to the windows loading screen and crashes. Is there a way to load SATA drivers after installing XP? I should have created a driver disk, and F6'd it, but really dont want to load up everything again.

Thanks
Garrett

you should just be able to install the drivers from within windows

Device manager?

Thanks for the replies. I am going to re-install windows and F6 it. Nothing else seems to work. I have tried updating drivers through device manager by forcing through "have disk" but it still crashes.
