Hi Fernando, I have an Asus Motherboard-Z97 Deluxe, 4770k CPU INTEL, Seagate 2TB HDD ST2000DM001, Memory Corsair 32GB 1600MHz.
Nlite did with the procedures outlined for you, but did not detect the AHCI drivers not recognized, formerly made with Nlite and functioned normally, but with this Motherboard'm having too much work and I'm not getting.

Follow this your procedure:

Integration of Intels AHCI/RAID drivers into a Windows XP CD

Also I joined the AHCI ASMedia 106x, still did not work.

>32bit ASMedia 106x SATA3 AHCI driver v2.0.3.1 WHQL< (>MIRROR<)

Follow the pictures:





BIOS

1st Attempt
I made a new Windows XP SP3, with only one controller Intel AHCI 8c82 (Fernando)
The Nlite did not detect the Intel AHCI driver, Windows XP SP3 system and began to detect the AHCI driver that blue screen (error) appears.

2nd Attempt
I made a new Windows XP SP3 with AHCI Intel AHCI and ASMedia 106x (wrong procedure) was just to test controllers. It was the same previous error.

In my Bios does not exist in the "BOOT" Legacy or Compatible options.

The options I found were IDE, RAID, AHCI.
I left the AHCI option selected, starting with the LG DVD boot.

Just enter the manufacturer-Asus Z97 Deluxe site.

Has a new updated Bios (1203), will update now.
My Bios is current (1104)

I'll try again installing Windows XP this new update Bios 1203

Windows XP does not detect the AHCI driver, in that it does not arrive on the HDD (Hard Disk) screen, it gives that error blue screen, tried to install press F6, still does not recognize the AHCI.

The HDD is not listed because the error happens before.
The error happens when loading the drivers.
Tested and works perfectly in VirtualBox to install Windows XP SP3.

I also think the problem is in the Bios settings, I'm currently trying to install Windows XP SP3 on a clean HDD without partitions.
The system is the Legacy Master Boot HDD configurations.
Ah the years I've been using nLite settings and updates to Windows XP SP3 and it is the first time I have problems with AHCI, I guess that does not have any errors in the integration of the Intel AHCI "Fernando" always done this sort of integration and never I had problems like that.
According to the manufacturer Asus, they claim that it is impossible to install Windows XP SP3 on Asus Z97 Deluxe, because it was designed to Win7 and Win8.1.
If I can install Windows XP SP3 on a clean HDD without partitions, there will for the second step is to try to install on a boot three "WinXP, Win7, Win8.1," I have done twice in a three boot Asus Socket 775, Intel Core Quad Q9550, with 100% success.

Good tested all settings option and the motherboard, but without success :-(
This motherboard has ACPI option, the option to have disabled SECURE BOOT and selected the [OTHER OS] option was still not possible to install the operating system.

This is the manual unlocked Asus Z97-Deluxe.

See page 135-138 "boot".

Thank you for the attention you have given in my case with Windows XP, sorry that it has not been possible to complete the installation.

Hello Fernando,

First of all, I'd like to thank you for your dedication to this forum and keeping this thread still up-to-date.
I have carefully read every bit of your guidance on page 1 of this thread. However, I still have some problems while installing XP SP3 32BIT on a x79 mobo(c600 chipset). The problem is related to AHCI driver integrated to the XP CD. Problem is BSOD with code 0000007B or XP setup is unable to find any disk and forced to exit with F3.
I follow your steps precisely using nLite and your textmode sata ahci driver. So now I;m run out of option.
First, let me ask a quick question, is it possible to install XP 32bit on X79 mobo by providing AHCI driver prior to installation? You said "only exception: X79 chipset users, who had installed Windows XP 32bit, they are not able to install any RSTe Drivers & Software Set", I'm confused.I guess RSTe Drivers is different from SATA AHCI driver, right?
secondly, nowadays the mobo manufacturer tends to provide PnP- type ahci driver rather than textmode driver . Hence, even if I download this driver from mobo manufacturer, I cann't intergrate it to the XP CD using nLite. For example, this is the AHCI/RAID Driver provided by mobo manufacturer.

Is there a way to convert PnP- type driver to textmode driver?
