Yeah, unfortunately XP doesn't include drivers for a lot of SATA controllers during setup.
The good news is that Vista does include drivers for the nForce4 SATA controller. I have the same motherboard as you, and when I was setting up 5365 on my new drive last week, it was detected without a problem.
OK, still having the problem with the HDD not being detected. Man, this really sucks. I am starting to get tired, but I really do not want to go to bed.
The window for hitting F6 is REAL small, did you hit it in time? Did you make the boot disk correctly? Go into Windows on your working PC and try to browse the disc to see if it came out OK.
I just set the BIOS back to defaults using the jumper, now the keyboard works. I am going to try and read the choices for the SATA menu now. Maybe I just picked the wrong one.
Here are the choices:
1) Make Sil3114 32bit SATA/RAID Driver disk (I chose this one)
2) Make Sil3114 64bit SATA/RAID Driver Disk
3) Make Nvidia 2000 Raid driver disk
4) Make Nvidia XP Raid Driver disk
5) Make Nvidia 2003 Raid driver disk
6) Make Nvidia 64bit XP RAID Driver Disk
7) make Nvidia 64bit XP RAID Driver Disk
8) Format Floppy disk
9) FreeDOS command prompt
Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
