Windows XP install CD does not have drivers for the enhanced SATA interface chip on your laptop. You need to "slipstream" the required drivers onto a new copy of the CD. Please do a search of this forum for more hints.

Even if you get XP installed you will not have drivers for the other motherboard chips. Like sound and network. you will find that HP does not provide the XP drivers.

Good Luck
