    Notebook is an ASUS G1s-

    I'm having trouble finding the proper drivers to allow Windows Xp to boot with "SATA Enhanced Mode" enabled in the Bios. I've tried to follow the walkthrough on the wiki, but it hasn't gotten me anywhere.

    First of all, the link in the wiki points to "iata82_enu.exe" and not "iata78_enu.exe." which the walkthrough refers to. I figured that this was just an updated file and continued with the walkthrough...

    Second, whenever I extract the drivers via the command line, it says "all files extracted successfully" but nothing is there :confused: ...

    So next I tried dowloading the floppy version of the files. The instructions seem to work fine up to the part where you open 'iaahci.inf" with the "have disk method" button. But when prompted to select the diver to install, "Intel(R) 82801 HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller" is nowhere on the list?

    I'd really like to fix this, any help would be appreciated.
