Dell 9100 Loading XP Pro from CD PCI.SYS Error
Issue:
Error or blue screen on PCI.SYS when loading OS or XP Pro CD cannot see a bootable device or partition.
Requirements:
• Download Dell driver for RAID controller.
• Slipstreamed CD with SP2 (Without this you will never boot the SP2 drivers are needed.)
• USB Floppy Disk (Could not figure out how to get USB stick working)
• Change BIOS RAID to Combination not AHCI.
Notes:
• Hit F2 on boot and change BIOS RAID configuration to Combination.
• In BIOS allow USB floppy.
• Create XP CD with SP2.
• Download SATA drivers from Dell site using your service tag.
• Create Floppy with (82801GR/GH SATA AHCI ICH7R/DH) RAID drivers
• When booting with XP Pro CD hit F6
• Hit S to specify a different driver select AHCI it will load the IASTOP.SYS file.
• Your done you can normally load XP Pro.
