    Hi, can someone help please.

    I have a HP g6031ae and I have no sata disable option in the bios. I've had a look at a few posts here but non are very clear or for this laptop.

    can someone tell me where to get the files and how to install?
    so i can dual boot xp.

    stats: AMD Athlonx2, nvidia graphics
    2gb ram.

    thanks in advance.

    HP AMD notebooks don't need that option. Only Intel notebooks do. So long as your WinXP install disc has SP2 integrated (or SP3, when available) it'll work.
