hi...

i have a problem installing windows XP on HP pavillion dv6850ee notebook

when i reach the second windows.. ( when it check for hard drives )

i get a messege that no hard drive found..

some guys told me to change the bios settings to ide or something like that but i dont know how...

please help..

thanx
 
How old is the drive, and why do you need to install? Is it a SATA machine with a SATA hard drive. Have you done what is needed to setup and format, per HP instructions?
 
there should be a setting in the bios for SATA operation. it needs to be set to compatible. If you dont have "compatable" please tell the options you have for sata operation
 
i think i just need drivers for SATA HDD

you think this could work

and i cant find them... if anyone know where can find post a link plz

thnx all...
