during the installation of XP, it says that there is no hard drive found.
i have heard its because i need to install SATA RAID drivers for the motherboard:

but i cant find the drivers for the motherboard online.
the motherboard is: springdale-g-6A79AD19C-00

can anyone help? is there a way around this?
