    Urgent or not, the rules in these forums are such that you may not bump your own thread for 24hours.

    If you want to install XP, you have to slipstream the SATA driver with the XP install disk. Google "nlite" for more info. The XP CD won't recognize your SATA hard drive otherwise.

    Installing a Mac OS on a non Mac screen violates the license agreement for the OS. Such discussions are not allowed on these forums. Best that you just say "some other OS", lest the moderators give you the boot.
