Installing XP on a SATA drive

So I recently got a Maxtor 200gig SATA drive, and I have the drivers needed so that Windows can recognize it. I pop in the Windows XP CD, and it starts setup and all, but when it prompts me to press F6 to install addition drivers, nothing happens. I keep pressing F6, but nothing happens until it asks me to press F2 if I want a Windows recovery thing. However, my F2 button DOES work and I go into that screen. And since I can't install the drivers at the beginning, I get an UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME BSOD once setup says "Starting Windows". I tried three different keyboards, two of which were PS/2 connected, yet setup doesn't recognize me pressing F6. What do you think the problem is? The XP ISO? I'm not sure. Thanks!

You have to insert a floppy disk with that driver.

Yea, the drivers are in a floppy disk, but my F6 button still refuses to work.

press f6 like if you don't press it you're going to die.

press and press and press.

press f6 butan with inserted floppy of sata controller driver, receive win xp installation

WHAT THE FUCK IS A FLOPPY?
