can t install vista64 lack sata hard disk drive

Help! Can't install VISTA64 for lack of SATA hard disk driver (non RAID)
I'm having the Asus A8N-SLI SE mobo, trying to install the latest Vista 64Bit Beta. After entering the serial, I'm being ask for a driver disk to submit the hard disk driver - we know this already from WinXP installations - only, that this time none of the drivers I could find on my CD or on the Silicon Image website work (it's a SIi3114 chipset). I'm just using one SATA drive, no RAID.
Many of you must have a similar setup, which I imagine is very commone, so how did you do it? Which driver did you use?
And to Microsoft: why is the BROWSE button unusable? At least I would like to browse a CD rather than copy stuff onto my floppy disk (how old fashioned!) with every new attempt. Takes so much time!!!

I was having the same problem. I found the Windows XP 64bit drivers on my motherboards web site to work just fine.

On Nvidia's site there are BETA Vista nForce drivers avail: http://www.nzone.com/object/nzone_downloads_rel70betadriver.html
Extract the file and place the nvRAID files on a CD/USB/FLOP and try again. Also if you still have problems you can do the Upgrade option without having to need Vista compat RAID drivers.

I have a p5n32 sli mobo. I had trouble getting the drive to come up and install as well. What I did was, using the HD manufacturers LLF program, I low level formatted the disk and then re-ran set-up. My HD came right up and I didnt have to run any SATA/RAID drivers at all. The other way I had gotten it to install was by loading XP on it and then once in windows running the Upgrade install. You can also get the NVRAID drivers from the BETA release under nvidias driver page.
