Question Fresh Windows XP on Sata Drive?

Hi,

In a bit of trouble here hope some one can help,
Ok I have:
MSI KM4M-v
Amd Atholon XP 2800+ 33mhz FSB
1.5 gb Memory (Matrix PC3200) [1 x 1gb and 1 x 512mb]
200gb Matrox DiamondMax +10 (SATA150/7200/8M)
80gb Ibm Desktar IDE
NEC DVD-RW Drive IDE
Samsung DVD DRIVE IDE

I have run LIVEUPDATE3 and bios is upto date

First off,

When I boot It will only show the first DVD Drive in the chain if I unplug it, the other shows ok. Any Idea

Second,
My IDE Already has Windows XP and boots ok and will see the SATA drive so I know its working (ANd how I ran LIve Update 3 to ensure the bios was upto date)

So when I try to install windows xp SP2 (Slip Streamed CD) on to the sata drive (Unplugged the IDE HDD) I prerss f6 and use the Floopy that comes with it. When its ready during loading it asks what driver to use - 2003 / XP / 2000 / NT 4

So Select WINXP and it then goes to Windows Starting up and then says it can't find any mass storage. Press f3 to quit.

Tried updating the drivers on the floppy and that doesn't work

Any Ideas guys.

Hope I have included enough info.

TIA

Kev
