Most of the drivers in the Serial ATA section are firmware updates for specific hard drives and will work only if you have that particular model hard drive installed.  You need to prepare the Intel pre-install driver as it is a self-extracting zip file which Windows setup will not touch.

Copy the Intel file to a folder on a working computer.  Double click the file and you should get a box asking you if you want to run the file.  Click whatever button means "yes".  The next box should tell you that the files are about to be extracted and will list a path in the lower of two text boxes.  To the right of the lower box you will see a small button with two periods in it (..).  Click that box and browse to the folder you are already using for the zipped file and select that folder.  The contents will be extracted to the folder.

Once you have the contents of the zipped file, copy them to a folder on a USB memory stick.  Use the "F6" prompt to tell Windows setup that you need to install a SCSI driver and direct it to the folder on the memory stick that contains the contents you extracted earlier.  Windows setup should present you with a selection of controller chips; select ICH9R.  Setup should continue.

With regard to the empty setup window;  did you select a custom install and go to the option that allows you to create and delete partitions?  You need to manually create a partition and format it in order to see something in the setup window.
