[Deleted User] · 2009-11-14 12:18:48

I have a Fujitsu Siemens LI 2727 AMILO with Vista Home on it, just wondering can i put Xp pro on it instead? Everytime i put in the xp disk it says i have no hard drive. Any help appreciated.

That would most likely be because the windows XP disc doesn't have any compatible drivers for your SATA controller.

When Windows XP install is running it should say "Press F6 if you need to install a third party SCSI or RAID driver..."
Press F6 and pop in the driver disc that came with your pc, and you may be in luck then...
