I've been given a laptop to re-build from a guy at work. He bought the laptop direct from Dell. He stupidly bought it with Ubuntu on it (or Umbongo as he called it  ) rather then Windows.
I'm putting XP on it for him. However, when i run the installation, it says "Setup cannot find any hard disks". I'm guessing i need to have the Sata drivers for the install.
10 Internetz to who can help me find the drivers i need

There is normally a setting in the bios to fix that although I can't remember what one it is off the top of my head.

I'm putting Vista on it now, that seems to install ok because i guess the Sata controller drivers are on the DVD....would still prefer XP though.
