Unable to create SZ on external USB HD

I bought a 100-GB external USB hard drive specifically to use for backup purposes. (System is AMD 2500+ Barton CPU, Biostar M7VIZ motherboard, 512 MB DDR333 RAM, 40 GB IDE internal Western Digital hard drive, 100 GB USB external Western Digital hard drive, CD-ROM, CD-R/RW, etc., running Windows XPSP2.)

I installed TI 8.0 (build 763) today, and tried to set up the Secure Zone on the external USB HD, but when it reboots to do the repartitioning and SZ creation, the function fails due to a "Drive not found" error (presumably because the USB drivers aren't yet installed in Windows at that point in the boot process). Is there a way to work around this?
