MRGCAV Posted May 30, 2007 Share Posted May 30, 2007 I bought a new HP DV6000 Laptop. It came with windows Vista. I can not stand Windows vista.The laptop had one SATA Drive and no floppy. It is capable of booting from a USB Flash or a USB hard drive.I have a Gateway Windows Vista 32 bit desktop to do my work on.I am very computer literate but have no experience loading SATA drivers and no experience Slipstreaming a CD. Never needed to.I downloaded the HP file for th XP SATA Driver called "Intel SATA AHCI Controller Driver sp32478 XP setup.exe"I have Nlite too.What do I do next ?P.S.I also want to replace IE6 with IE7 before installing.MRGCAV@GMAIL.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was not sure what the correct topic was so I repeated my post. sorry.What is the "Windows Post installer" ?Where can I read about it ?UPDATEI got Windows XPSP2 To load on the the laptop by going into the BIOS and disabling the native SATA Drivers and I read in another post.I am not sure how this affects my SATA 7200rpm drive's preformance.Any Ideas ?Any Suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated.MRGCAV@Gmail.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
