Hello,
My Inspiron 1525 HD died therefore have purchased a new one. In my attempts to get my notebook up and running I have run into a problem: tried to install the WXPS Home and I got a message: "setup found no hard disk drivers installed on computer". How can I fix this and finish setting up my new hard drive?

Thank you!

Hi there,

No worries mate you will get all instructions for the downgrade on link below from Faq,which you first need to disable sata and then reboot from cd :
