NLITE and AHCI Installation Guide

Appendix A - NLITE and AHCI Installation Guide

nLite

nLite is an application program that allows you to customize your XP installation 
disc by integrating the RAID/AHCI drivers into the disc. By using nLite, the F6 
function key usually required during installation is no longer needed.  

Note:

The installation steps below are based on nLite version 1.4.9. Installa-
tion procedures may slightly vary if you’re using another version of the 
program.

1.  Download the program from nLite’s offi cal website. 

 http://www.nliteos.com/download.html 

2. Install nLite.

Important:
Due to it’s coding with Visual.Net, you may need to fi rst install .NET 
Framework prior to installing nLite.

3.  Download relevant RAID/AHCI driver fi les from Intel’s website. The drivers 

you choose will depend on the operating system and chipset used by your 
computer.

 The 

downloaded 

driver 

fi les 

should include iaahci.cat, 

 

iaAHCI.inf, iastor.cat, iaStor.
inf, IaStor.sys, license.txt 
and TXTSETUP.OEM.
