Confused about SATA drivers for XP reinstall on XPS 1530

Thread Starter 
I have my brandnew XPS 1530 with a flavor of Vista on it. I want to wipe it and install XP, which is a new adventure for me (going from Vista to XP).

I've followed the instructions using nlite to slipstream XP SP3 with the files on my pre-service pack Win XP install cd.

I've downloaded the Dell drivers and instructions referenced on this forum.

I'm confused about whether the SP3 slipstream includes SATA drivers, or if I need to find them, and, if so, where I would do so.

thanks in advance for helping out!

Pretty sure SP3 doesn't,and I personally wouldn't slipstream sp3 on my disc anyway,I would update it after sp2 is running fine without problem and then update it,as it would make any issues/faultfinding a bit easier if sp3 causes any problems,which is not that uncommon.
