u dont detect SATA drives in BIOS

if you want a new installation of Windows on the SATA Raptor, Windows will detect during installation of the CD your using is XP SP2 or newer!

other than that, you will need to make a floppy disk with drivers for your SATA controller from the CD provided by your motherboard vender.
