As you have your BIOS set to IDE mode, if you change to AHCI mode Windows 7 will not boot.
AHCI : Enable in Windows 7 / Vista

Choose both setup inf files.

Choose all drivers.

Choose all sata controllers.

Try selecting multiple driver folder , oddly there is no iaStor.inf , just shown as seen in the figure .

First check for all the Win XP drivers for your hardware on the manufacturer's web site.
If your Win XP CD, does not support your Sata Controller, you will need to load drivers to uses at F6.
Load Sata Controller drivers with a floppy disk is the best way.

When I selected single driver there is iaStor.inf selectable then select iaAHCI the result is shown the same as selecting multiple driver folder which is portrayed in the picture. Thus should I select the highlighted items?

Furthermore, I checked with acer website provide window 7 driver ; However, I have ever tried installing with window XP most of them work fine except several drivers and AHCI is also not supported it shows the error massage event install in window 7

I have no external floppy disk and I suppose that the first chose still be able to be attained.
