I see. You should burn the vLite ISO into a DVD and boot from the DVD and install it from the DVD directly. I never recommend installing another/separate OS inside an OS. Example, I'm in XP, and I install Vista inside XP.

You need your hdd driver.

1.Search on the net.

2.Download the driver.

3.Extract or store in flash drive@ thumb drive@ pen drive.

4.Reboot. (Make sure your flash drive attach)

5.Change your hdd mode in bios setting. Option: IDE mode or AHCI/RAID mode, choose : AHCI/RAID mode.

6.Change boot order, first boot device should be: your optical drive.

7.When you reach the installation on hdd (where your encounter problem), click on 'Load Driver'.
It will automatically show folder explorer.
Choose your flash drive where your driver stored.

8.It will show compatible driver only. Then just proceed to the next process.

Good luck.
