It sounds like you need the driver for the hard disk controller or to make a
change in the BIOS concerning the hard drive. Have you asked HP for assistance? "sherazqurban" wrote in message ...

All new laptops/notebook PC come with a SATA hard drives which XP does not
look for and can't recognize. Check in CMOS if there is a setting to disable SATA. If not you have to slipstream the laptop specific driver into XP.

He can supply the driver (F6 during early text phase in XP and Load Drivers
in Vista). He doesn't have to slipstream the driver although that is sometimes a useful way to do it. "ajv2003" wrote in message ...

I would think that once he has it in a USB box, it loses it's PATA / SATA identity. I've never had a problem just mounting them. But I did have to do this: http://technet2.microsoft.com/window....mspx?mfr=true -- BobF. |

I wish I could simply disable SATA in the bios but my bios does not give me the option - I'll download nlite |
