This is the first step of my guide on how to install Windows XP on the Asus X53Sg notebook. It basically explains how to change the SATA mode to compatible in your BIOS. You can find the full guide including drivers for XP at: http://www.technoish.com/drivers/asus-x53s-notebook-install-xp-drivers/

  • hahahaha, is it necessary to be naked when doing this?

    You guys that actually tried this nosense were punked big time.

  • Yup! You got to do it this way, the procedure requires it! Otherwise it just won't work :D

  • Didn't work :(

  • It is not possible, 90% of the notebooks with sata hard disk, have the option to make it to compatible mode(others have its name differently in the bios) which allows you to install windows xp without deploying the sata hard drivers through floppy on the beginning of the install with F6

  • who wants xp

  • I would just like to say THANKYOU VERY MUCH! for showing how to get to the boot screen, saved me a laptop

  • hey buddy i have laptop whic dont support windows xp how can i install xp ... when ever i am trying to install it says that NO HHD FOUND IN UR SYSTEM help me

  • It worked!! although my bios didn't have a sata disable option, it did have a "compatible" option which I selected and was then able to install xp

  • @fermixx

    I think NCQ is the biggest benefit of Sata. The other is plug & play while the OS is running, for things like removable dvd-roms in laptops.

  • @newman30000010 yes I left the BSOD intentionally to show you guys that windows xp won't boot with sata enabled, then after disabling it through the BIOS windows xp started with no problems.

  • thank you thank you thank you !!!!!!!!5/5 stars !! really helped me

  • Thx man

  • Thx man
