I wanted to install win xp pro onto a Del latitude laptop D630 which originally had vista installed. I however came across this error message, is there anything I can do?
Likely due to the computer having a SATA drive which XP didn't support out of the box.
Two options Load the driver during the install or inject the driver into the boot disc Look in BIOS for a drive emulation mode and change it to Legacy or IDE
Sadlt it would appear I can't do either of these, the installation doesnt get t anywhere amongst the likes of changing settings, and no mention of ide or drive emulation in the bios. Thanks for your response though.
Although Windows XP is no longer officially supported by Microsoft it's still a hugely popular operating system. Now is obviously a good time for people
