"Setup cannot find any hard drives....."

[Frank]

I have too many Gremlins running around and want to repair XP.
I have slipstreamed SP2 and have used this CD before, but...

this time my drives are on a PCI card IDE interface and Setup does not
find the drives so I can do the re-load/repair.

Any way around this?

You will need to pre-load the drivers for your PCI card

During the initial phase of your instllation
you will be prompted to hit F6 to load any additional drivers

have the drivers on a floppy and "feed" the installer the drivers at that
point

Go into the BIOS and change the boot order to boot from an addin device -
meaning the PCI card as opposed to a motherboard connection.
