Trying to install XP Pro on a laptop with a SATA drive on it.

I'm trying to install XP Pro on a laptop with a SATA Hitachi drive and no floppy drive to load the drivers from. Hard drives is visible in the BIOS and AHCI in the BIOS as well. USB floppy drives will not work (will not be considered 'A' during installation). Is there a way to make an installation with appropriate drivers disk, added to this?

Hello

Please go to the bios and switch from AHCI mode and try again.

If it does not work. You could integrate the drivers in XP Pro
