A while back i installed Windows Server 2003 (32-bit), but had IDE mode rather than AHCI set in the BIOS. Predictably just changing the BIOS makes 2003 blue-screen on boot-up, which to my knowledge is due to missing drivers. How can i install these drivers without resorting to a clean install?
My motivation for enabling AHCI is to allow hot-swapping, which to my knowedge SATA can't do in IDE mode.

I found this, it is for Home Server but this OS is based on 2003
