Default Installing XP on SATA HD

I just built a computer with the following:

GA-700N Pro2 motherboard
Maxtor 80 Gig SATA HD

The system boots to bios correctly. However, when I try to install Windows XP it is clear that my HD is not recoginzed by the Windows XP installation program. It says to press F6 and instal SATA and/or RAID drivers. As far as I know, I do NOT have those.

Where can I get the driver necessary to get my system up and running. Note, I will not be using RAID. I only want my single SATA drive recognized at the moment. And, if possible, please explain in depth where I can obtain the necessary driver (any driver that will work for now) and how to get the necessary files onto a floppy that the installation program will recognize.

Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
