Re: xp reinstall hp pavilion laptop

a HDD failure I am trying to reinstall XP/SP2 on an HP Pavilion
dv2601tx
laptop. Installer recognized the new 160GB SATA HDD after F6 and
loading of
82801GBM SATA AHCI drivers from USB floppy. Later, installer prompted
me to
"Insert the disk labeled: Intel Matrix Storage Manager driver into
drive A:,
Press ENTER when ready." I found this driver on a download site and
prepared a floppy however with floppy in place when I press Enter the
installer doesn't even do a seek on the floppy and the screen message
does
not change. How can I get past this step?
