I cannot install windows xp as a second os. My bios acknowledges the hard drive is plugged in but xp installer doesnt

[luke9357]

I want to install windows xp on my computer as a second os. I want to play some old games that I cannot play on windows 10. Anyway, I turned my flash drive into a windows install disc (It is a legit copy). I unplugged my main hard drive so I wouldn't accidently format my drive I forgot to unallocate the hard drive that I was going to put the os on(300ish gb) when I tried to install the os. So, the bios said os not found turning off computer so I plugged my main hard drive in to unnallocate the second one. When I restarted my pc I was happy to see the windows xp install usb drive do its thing. When I got to the part where you have to click on what drive you want to use it says number of mass storage devices available and it says none. I continue then it checks the c drive which of course it cannot find it. My bios detects the hard drive that I want to install the os to but the windows xp installer does it. Is it possible that my computer is to good to run windows xp?

Probably need SATA controller drivers, if they exist for your chipset and windows XP.
