Hello,

If you want to install Xp on your laptop,

You will have to save all your important data in an external hard drive,

Then change the SATA operation on your bios settings,

Just change to ATA or IDE

Then you will need to boot the Windows Installation disc to begin installation,

You will be asked to format the partition, Format using NTFS

Thanks
