Then you should use nLite to slipstream these into your CD. If you have AHCI enabled in the BIOS then you will need some other drivers as discussed here.

PS: It's for occasions like this that I keep a USB FDD in the drawer!

I think it's time for me to get one aswell, and I haven't recived my computer yet, it'll arrive on tuesday so this is just really preperation and I want to learn how to do this properly, thanks a lot!

Follow up question: How will this really go during the procedure? Will I need to press F6 to install a SATA/RAID driver or?

If you got the correct HDD interface drivers slipstreamed into the installation CD then there's no need for F6. The installer will see the hardware then find that the drivers are already on the CD and use them.

Oh and, John, think it's an idea to remove all but the XP32 drivers from the driver package so it won't take wrong? Or may it not work then?

The installer should be clever enough to avoid the wrong drivers but it must help to leave off anything which you know is incompatible.
