I had this a while ago

Ahh in the bios under the settings for your HDD there was something you had to change

That's the best you will get out of me at 3:00 in the morning

Ill have a Google and see if something will jog my memory

could have been

change the SATA mode in the laptop's BIOS settings

first check that you have the CPU and CPU fan are installed correctly.
if you can get into BIOS, go to the CPU menu,and check the temperature.
see also your power option setting in BIOS.

Hi baseel I have checked the BIOS
CPU frequency 2.83GH (333x8.5)
vcore 1.140V , DDR18V 1.920V , +3.3V 3.392V , +12V 12.175V
System temp:28 C , CPU temp 30 C , CPU fan speed 1326 .

From memory,

XP does not have the sata drivers on the install disc,

you need to find the sata drivers , & install them by pressing F6, as XP boots up,

or slipstream them into your XP boot disc,

just a thought

Edit: it is not finding your hard drive,

Windows Vista should install no problems,

This has worked for me, but may not be your problem

Yes I did try to save on the flopy boot disc the GIGABYTE GSATA driver for 32bit system from the disc that comes with the mother board and I did pres F6 when I was installing the XP when was asking to press F6 I'm getting the some thing.

**xnavyman** · 01-07-09, 01:47 PM

Has the hard drive been formatted?

**roma** · 01-07-09, 01:49 PM

No i'ts new

**Philquad** · 01-07-09, 02:11 PM

shouldnt need sata drivers
i bet its the ram
take a stick out leaving only 1 in.
take any pci cards out too.

**tagg** · 01-07-09, 02:56 PM

is sata turned on in the Bios ???

This site may be of some help to you.

**baseel** · 01-07-09, 06:10 PM

hi Roma
the error you are getting there is more hardware related.
try to check your bios setting again, can you see your HDD in BIOS, if yes, try to change the setting in bios to Default options( should be when you save and exit from bios).
another thing you could try is another installation media(disk).
good luck.

**best4less** · 01-07-09, 07:05 PM

I am telling you I had the same thing and it was a simple thing in bios for the HDD True Story

**OSIRUS** · 01-07-09, 07:55 PM

Some more information that may or may not help,

or could be something else,

Good Luck

Edit: Can you try to install a copy of Windows Vista (after reseting the bios to defaults),

to see if it will install Ok,

if it installs Ok this may rule out other hardware & assembly problems,

not really, vista tends to be less hardware and software picky than xp
imho

**Philquad** · 01-07-09, 08:45 PM

what im trying to say is
if it boots to xp cd, see's the 500gb sata drive, starts to install?
well theres no hdd prob, its the 4gb ram or a pci card load problem
theres nothing else there.
i do heaps of sata drive xp installs and have never had to do the F6 load sata drivers crap.
unless the bios needs to be set ide\mode on some occasions.
my $ still on the 4gb ram.

I thought XP and 4gb of Ram combination is useless anyway.

You are spot on mate i had one where he wanted Vista off and xp on but xp would come up with that exact error from above but when i tried Vista just as you have recommenced she started to install straight away and it was just one click in the Bios for the HDD settings and away XP went but i canny remember what the setting was LOL

**Philquad** · 01-07-09, 09:41 PM

amazing how we're all trying to fix it but the op doesnt seem to be?
i had a old msi amd xp motherboard once with a xp 2800 cpu
you had to hit F5 during the boot from cd process somewhere and choose
achi mode? or something?
or it would hang on the install forever.
yes somewhere in the bios maybe sata\ide mode
pick ide even though its sata
i still bet i9ts the 2x2 sticks ram lol.
op doesnt say how far it gets before it crashes? does it see the hdd?
can you partition the 500gb hdd(good idea)
does it load xp files?
