Hi there,I've had similar problems installing Windows XP on a 500 gig SATA hard drive.

I'm not sure what the solution is just yet, but this might help:ppy-F6-47807.shtmlApparently, the XP installation CD doesn't have the SATA drivers you need to install windows directly to a SATA hard disk. The above article shows you how to insert the appropriate driver on an installation CD.Going to try this myself. Hopefully it works.He's right, if your motherboard doesn't have native sata you'll have to load the drivers for it by hitting F6 at the beginning of the windows installation. So new system, Intel DG33BU motherboard, SATA drives but not RAID. Originally booted up XP SP1 install disk, install got to 'Installing Devices' then Bluescreened.

Spoke to a few folks and apparently SP1 doesn't support my motherboard, so I needed to get an SP2 CD. OK, got an SP2 CD, booted up, started the install, and I don't even get as far as the SP1 CD, it instantly says:Installation Failed: D:I386asms. The parameter is incorrect.Fatal Error:One of the components that Windows needs to continue setup could not be installedThe parameter is incorrect.Now, I have a floppy drive, but what I don't have is a floppy with SATA drivers on it. Why did XP SP1 get past this and SP2 not? Why am I crashing earlier? Where do I get SATA Drivers for this mobo? They're not on the Intel site;(Help?

They're not on the Intel site;('Help? I suggest you start a new thread and list your questions there. Have you tried one DIMM of your RAM in slot one only and loading your OS that way? You might go into BIOS and bump up the memory voltage a notch or set the memory voltage to mfg. Memory is often the cause of system failure when trying to run software like the installation of an OS.

It has happened to me.Open the MB support cd on another machine. Double click 'My Computer' then open the MB CD files then open the 'Drivers' folder. From there, open the Sata folder and copy everything from the Sata folder to a floppy except the GUI and the Readme file.

EDIT: For possible problem and its solution read below this post:Hello there, guys. I have an old laptop which has no CD-ROM drive and no floppy driveSo you tested your install CD on an other PC but maybe files needed to install your notebook are not on the cd and thus not on the (MD5 checked directory) hard disk.
