Samsung SP1614C a SATA HDD. You don't need a driver for it. If the SATA controller doesn't detect it, you have other problems. You might need a driver for your SATA controller, but that's something totally different.
i have the original xp cd and it installs without any problem and its setup detects the sp1614c hard driver and loads automatically thus the xp system will be installed but i don't like this original cd any more. now i have another customized awesome xp cd like vista in look i have already install it on my friend computer but in mine it always say that the setup didn't detect any hard drive on your computer press F3 to quit which means that this customized cd doesn't have any driver for my samsung sp1614c hd, please if any one can find it for me will give the download link and how to integrate it into this customized cd by the way why have you closed my other post it has nothing to do with this topic what i need really in the other post is a bootable cd which only includes command prompt to allow me to excute command to log to my partitions and copy files or delete or format etc pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease help _______________________________________
If you have a disk which works and one which is obviously missing the sata driver then the obvious thing to do is to either use the disk that works.. and update from the other.. or remaster the one you do like with the driver which is obviously on the original. It's not too hard to build custom xp disks with your driver set these days.. http://lifehacker.com/286125/ the X-S boys will be amazed I just linked to them by proxy XD

if you want really to know then follow this guide i found it difficult to understand because it's in arabic i only followed images in this site i noticed three methods 1-using true image workstation with universal restore and that is what i followed: i installed the customized xp cd on my friend computer and i back it up,i copy the backup image on cd and restore it from there to my computer and i add missing driver from my original xp cd when true image prompts me for it. if you follow this method other disk imaging soft will not work 2-using universal imaging utility backup xp on other computer after installing UIU and downloaded the required drivers and restore it on the other computer,the restoration may work if UIU has downloaded the missing driveres 3-i didn't understand it oh come on i didn't have choice you know,i spent a whole day in front of this tutorial trying to solve this mystery untill i begun to see mist in my eyes i was redirected to it from another arabic english site it was only by chance when i first found this tutorial i was happy, i said 2 years of looking for the solution have come to an end cooooooooooooool!!!! yeah! arabic no problem, i'm going to use a translation site or engine at once. what????? damn the author have written this on photo unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
