    hi!
    i recently bought a brand new hp dv3 with vista installed, want to have xp on it but i got the bluescreen when i tried to install xp.

    so i run into the internet to get some information. i think i need the Sata driver for my laptop in the XP cd. But what i want to install to my computer is tinyxp xmas edition, cuz its small, simple and hell fast. I tried to merge the sata driver in there but the iso ended up to be 230mb when the orginal was 600mb? what to do? i think the orginal iso is a different builkd than the orginal xp, oh btw i used nlite.

    how do i do to insert sata driver in it ? can anyone explain ?

    i found another stripped version of xp (xp performance) with a already inserted sata driver for my laptop, but i only got a blackscreen when i tried to boot the cd, why ? any clue ?

    i really want a stripped version of XP in my comp

    sorry for my bad english, hope you can help me =)
