-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 I stand to be corrected, but I seem to recall that the xpsp2 install media doesn't support sata out of the box, unless you load the drivers for it right when the installer starts. It looks like you've got sata enabled, and the ide controller disabled. I'd therefore suggest reversing that (I.E. disable sata, and enable ide), and trying the install process again.
