    Hi,

    I want to install Windows XP on to my laptop (HP Pavilion DV6767). But when i try to install XP i get error mesage saying "hard drive not found".
    After searching in Forums, i came to know that i need to change some settings with SATA option in BIOS. But I don't know the location of SATA drivers in BIOS.
    During startup i pressed F10 and entered into BIOS Utility, But i am not able to locate this SATA option in BIOS.
    Please help me how can solve this issue and install XP onto my Laptop.

    You need to add the sata drivers to the xp install disc. I'm not sure though, since I have no intentions of using an ancient OS on my new laptop.
