SATA Driver?

I just bought a OEM Western Digital 500GB drive. The model is WD500YS.
It doesn't come with anything other than the drive. I pluged it into my
system. On boot up, the BIOS sees it. Once I log in, Windows XP also
detects it but asks for its driver. It can't found it for itself
though, not online or anywhere. Where can I get its driver?

THe motherboard is Asus P4P800 Deluxe. I don't see any SATA driver at
Asus site either.

From the motherboard manufacturer's web site.

It can be a tad awkward to navigate until
you get used to the way they do things.

Go to http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us
Put P4P800 Deluxe in the search box in the top left hand corner, hit the
search button, select the P4P800 Deluxe in the middle of the screen,
download the drivers you require.

They'll be on the CD that came with the motherboard too.
