If you're sure all the possible SATA drivers XP could have wanted, it might be a good idea to use the hard disk manufacturer's own diagnostic tools in case the disk is failing.

What kind of hard drive do you have?

Make sure both cables are connected.

Make sure the hard drive is listed in the BIOS.
