Please give me some more informations:1. Which textmode driver did you integrate into the XP CD? 2. Did you integrate anything more? 3. Has your SATA hdd been detected by Windows Setup? 4. Does your laptop have a SATA connected optical drive? 1. I have tried several, in like 7-8 cd:s or so. The last one i tried contained all inside of the "STOR_all32_f6flpy32_8.7.0.1007_PV" package. Hp themselves told me first that I would need the ICH9M SATA driver. Which I tried. Then i contaced them again, got another supportperson who said I should use the ICH7M. So I tried that too. Then i tried your ICH9, without the letter after. Still no go. Since the HP-support doesn't really seem to be trustworthy (it's like talking to a robot when chatting with them), I wonder if there is a way to find out myself what kind of driver I should use for my computer? 2. At first I integrated the Intel INF files drivers but i stopped doing that after 2-3 cd:s since i thought they were maybe the thing getting me the BSOD. Tried it again in like.. CD 6 but still no go. Usually only integrated one driver. 3. If you mean if it is availible in the Device Manager, then yes. If you mean that it does ever detect it when I start with the bootcd, it never gets that far, cause the BSOD comes before that. If I haven't answered your question please specify and I will try to answer again. 4. Concering that, I really don't know, and I don't know how to find out either. Would it eventually fix it if I had an USB-drive? (which I don't have, just wondering) Thanks for your continued support
