If you have an IDE-raid, or SCSI configuration, you're required to press
F6 during WinXP setup, and load the custom drivers off of a Floppy.

Adding 3rd party hard disk drivers or raid drivers during setup
You can add the drivers to a custom WinXP CD. In fact, this is the
smart way to do it since you can add all your drivers, plus you can set
the switches so that you don't have to babysit the install.
System recovery using partition magic, nortons, others.
Partition Magic will recover from the install CD. Ghost is crap unless
you do enterprise deployment, but the image disc itself is bootable.
