I'll soon be upgrading to win7 (dual boot), but luckily for all of us this is covered by Dell team :) All the best, Radek Hi Bharath,

This post gives suggestions for xp drivers for a dell PC similar to mine. However, It seems like you went through my post on <a href="http://bharathreddyt.in/2009/01/27/install-xp-on-your-vista-pc/" rel="nofollow">installing XP on a vista PC</a> already. 1. You could try using the system restore or recovery mechanism for the vista installation. Or better still, backup important data and reinstall. 2. XP setup wont be able to see the SATA HDD unless you include the corresponding drivers. I'm not really sure if you could include executable SATA drivers instead of ini based ones. 3. My suggestion is to check out for such drivers on the HDD manufacturer's website. Another option is to contact Toshiba's technical support. All the best. Pradeep,

My laptop Toshiba Equium U300-151 came with Windows Vista Home Premium, it starts in Safe Mode for some error. I have not been able to diagnose what the problem is. I tried repairing through Chkdsk /F but it does not get better. 2. Tried installing Windows 2000 & XP Professional SP3, I get “Setup did not find any Hard Disk Drive installed in your computer, set up can not continue. To quit set up press F3”. 3. Followed your guide to install XP on http://bharathreddyt.in/2009/01/28/windows-xp-drivers-for-dell-xps-m1330/ but was not successful as the nLITE does not get to the create Image but goes to FINISH after adding Multi-folders (which contain SATA and IATA Driver, Chipset & HDD Protection). I created these folders on an empty partition (D: drive) as all the drivers downloaded from Toshiba web site are in zip form and only creates setup files therefore can not see any .ini files As the size on disk to create image increases by 16.8 Mb. 4. Also for your more information, this laptop comes with Phoenix BIOS Ver.4 installed and it does not have the option to change the HDD from SATA to any other compatible mode. I have downloaded all the drivers (Zipped form) for windows XP required for this laptop and also the BIOS update issued in Jan 2009. 5. Please suggest how can I? I look forward to your help to enable me install Windows XP Pro on it. 1. My laptop Toshiba Equium U300-151 came with Windows Vista Home Premium, it starts in Safe Mode for some error.
