    Hello everyone!

    I'm having issues regarding my laptop: I'd like to install a windows XP version on my laptop and am getting a bluescreen at installation with an error code STOP 0x0000007B.

    Apparently this has to be with the SATA-raid or SATA-AHCI mode of the bios. I'd like to see what's up with that and possibly fix the issue but I don't seem to have access to a lot of options in my bios. I tried downloading the latest version from the sony website but nothing has been added.

    I did some research, including in these forums but I'm afraid the bios stuff is very specific and I don't want to mess with that in a way that I won't even be able to start it at all x)


    Sooo yeah, apparently I'd have to flash my bios or something like that but it's been a while since I shown too much interest in computer optimisation and stuff.

    Any help is welcome

    Have a great day!
