This should help u in doing what u want.

I think if you integrate SP3 it will already have sata drive detecting capability so u may not need the drivers separately, Can anyone else confirm this?

With nlite you can even integrate your regularly used programs along with XP & make a custom XP installation cd for ur needs & use unattended installation so it will install all the softwares automatically for you every time.

Hey this is simple I have done it several times...

Download and install drivermax.
Using drivermax export all your drivers to some folder.
Now simple open nlite and import those folders!! nlite will integrate the necessary drivers.

If you need detailed help for integrated sp3 using nlite.. well nlite is pretty self-explanatory..
I don't remember the exact process though (its been a while),, so ask exactly where you get stuck or just google

@OP

Go to MSFN Forums. They have a seperate forum for unattended discs using nlite with lots of resources.

Driver Magician . just take a backup of ur drivers with this software. and when u reinstall ur windows install driver magician and there is a option of restore. give the location of ur back up drivers it will automatically restore the drivers.

Note:= when backing ur drivers there is a option of only search non-microsoft drivers. only take the backup of non-microsoft drivers
