HP 550 Disable Sata to Install Xp

[funnycutegirlvids]

:) you gave me an idea for my win vista pc i downgraded from 7 (REALLY A WINDOWS VISTA BASIC PC) -on sisters youtube >.>

[ingars17]

i had the same problem when i tried to install xp, but i was able to install win 7 starting it on 1 comp and finishing on my hp 550

[yoko174]

Well...my solution was to slipstream the installation disk with SATA Drivers. So the installation package can detect windows xp without doing much disabling the SATA native mode. But this is a nice work around to it. Thank you for posting it.

however, disable sata means you cn never install any optical driver that has sata interface and can only install ide drive. that is huge trade off to install sata hd on xp.

Good buddies..can someone help me about this

How can I stop user account holders in windows from installing programs (particularly games like warcraft: cause I really hate DOTA) at my computer? I'm a home based user and my housemates keep on installing crappy programs and my system is almost ruined. I'm using Win XP and Vista.

technoish-- THANKS for posting this. I had to reinstall XP PRO on a friend's virused up 550- Thanks to you i got it to start the install.

[Tsilibillys]

after we install xp , we re-enable the sata?or leave it disable? thanks again

[technoish]

@Tsilibillys Yes you should leave disabled otherwise it will just give you BSOD. You could force-install the sata drivers after windows is installed, and then enable sata, but it is a procedure, and you have to have the right drivers, otherwise you could end up reinstalling windows xp all over again.

THANKS MAN

[midomickey]

thank you sooooo much

very helpful

[MultiRusho]

Thanx mate this really saved me money

[derekie1993]

Instead of installing xp, you could also install windows 7. Much better OS than xp.

[decoyone95]

@derekie1993 What?? As Os XP is better ......win7 sucks ....the only good it has is the apperance....XP has good apperance,is faster and has very good gaming...(I LOVE XP)

[18apen]

@decoyone95 It seems you've never really run windows 7 long enough! If you did you would have known that windows 7 actually has the speed, the stability and the same feeling as windows xp had. I would recommend you to run windows 7 for a bit longer and then think about it again. (I would recommend a core 2 duo and 2 gb of ram and maybe a wddm compatible graphic card to experience the best of windows 7).

Unfortenly in my case this didn't work, although it makes sense to work. HP nbks sucks hard, I use DELL ATGe6400 M6500 COVET and Acer Aspire new line. This is an old model and I need-it for some old applications, xp compatible. I didn't find any F6 disck drivers for this model. Think of trying with drivers from another notebook :D - an acer notebook ;). I bought and external usb floppy drive.

Help

[Mefoo007]

Did you ever get it to see the HD? Mine girlfriends has same issue. can install Vista no prob, but my WinXP disc just doesn't see it?!?

[technoish]

After you do the steps in this video, the Windows XP disc will see the Hard Disk without any problems. That is the reason why I've uploaded it. Works perfectly.

[palche]

Thanks A LOT! :D Saved me from panicking when I found out that I can't install windows XP on my brand new machine.
