Question : SATA drivers for vista?

I thought this was only an xp issue but do I need to install third party drivers for sata drives on vista?  I am trying to install vista on a Dell inspiron 531s. When it boots up it sees the hard drive but when I try to install vista it does not.  It is not the stock hard drive it is a seagate ST3160815AS.  Do I need drivers for this?  I cannot find them on seagates site.

You shouldn't need to any drivers for hard drive. What kind of error are you getting when installing vista?
