Hello,

You may need to enter BIOS settings and disable SATA configuration. I'm not sure about your system BIOS environment but try to look for the settings of SATA, and then just disbale it. Or if you are in UAE, I can provide you a Windows XP that contains the SATA driver so you can install XP in your machine wiithout going to your BIOS settings. I can also mail you a CD, if you want.
I have bout hp pavilion dv5 AMD laptop preinstalle windows vista, I need to downgrade to xp but I didn't get the exact driver to compile it with my xp cd.
Hope you are doing well, let me introduce myself, my name Yousuf and working in Kuwait, I have a humble request; I have HP pavilion dv6000 notebook which comes Windows Vista, I would like to remove and install XP SP#, could you please guide me how I can perform this, I have went thru many forums and found that I have to disable SATA Native Support, unfortunately I couldn't able to find this option in my BIOS,
Your cooperation and early support for the same will highly appreciated.
I have been formatted , and now trying to installation of win xp. But system shown an error, hard drive is not install/hard drive is not found.
So please send me Hp pavilion dv6000's raid controller driver.
