Hye there,

To install XP on this machine, which had Vista originally installed, you will have to change the some settings in the BIOS

You will have to access BIOS and change the SATA operation/mode, to IDE or change any settings related to sata!

Then save and exit bios,

Insert your Windows XP disc

This time it will work

Thanks
