Intel 965M (ICH8) driver download

[lisander3]

Dear all,
I have some problems with the downgrade from vista to xp: when I try to install xp pro my pavilion dv6599el doesn't find the hdd, I'm looking for the right sata driver (chipset: Intel 965M (ICH8)) to add in my boot xp pro cd.
Thanks a lot!

my experience:

go into BIOS and change to SATA native mode if you can't find the right driver...
sometimes Native Mode is even better than AHCI depending on the circumstances.
