Screen of death while trying to install XP
Closed
Hello, I have a new hd for a laptop and I am trying to install xp on it. I have it hooked up as an external hd to my desktop. Every time I install XP I get the screen of death at the XP screen. I have tried XP with Service Pack 3 and 1. I installed Ubuntu Linux and it said I was missing a file hal.dll. Can I get some assistance please!!

Hi there,
On external devices you cannot install windows operating system,as you mentioned 'hal.dll ' is missing this is when system boots and tests devices on it thus on external its not applicable,you can remove your hard drive form laptop then plug new one and install windows on it.
Thanks
