    Did you follow SouthernGirl's XP install guide? If not, check out the guide before proceeding any further. Most likely you're missing a driver or necessary laptop software.

    Couple of things - first make sure XP is completely updated. Also, make sure that all of your drivers are updated and installed properly.

    Have you installed any software?
