Default looking for server 2003 SATA mass storage drivers for windows server 2003

I'm trying to install Server 2003 on an XPS200 but the hard drive isn't
recognized. I downloaded the SATA drivers for XP from the Dell
site and stuck them on a floppy and hit F6 during the Server 2003
install to load a mass storage driver. I get a list of about 7 different
choices, but all of them cause errors when selecting them. I assume
this is the wrong format for the sort of disk that the install is looking
for. Any idea where to get this disk (and exactly which Intel
SATA controller the XPS200 has?) Thanks!

The SATA controller shows under XP Pro as:
Intel 82801G (ICH7 Family) Ultra ATA Storage Controller-270P
Inter 82801GR/GR SATA AHCI
