Hi, I have had a problem trying to install any copy of windows onto my laptop, the problem started when my hard drive on my laptop decided to pack up, and after that i purchased a new hard drive in order for me to use on my HP laptop, I formatted the hard drive to NTFS, and tried installing windows 98, xp, and windows 7 on it, but every time I try to do this, On windows XP, an error appears telling me it cannot find the hard drive, windows 7 can detect the hard drive but cannot install the updates (i have read this is the same issue as the reason i cannot install windows xp, the fact that it cannot detect the SATA drivers)
The issue is i have no idea what driver i need to streamline or add on via f6, for my laptop..
The laptop model is a Hewlett packard DM3-1111SA
I also have no bios setting too disable AHCI mode for my hard drive as i suspect that is the problem, and enable IDE mode.
many thanks.
