Windows XP Home Setup Message

[Bob Patterson]

Hello,
When I attempt to use Setup for XP, I get a message "Primary hard disk drive not found." What is the problem?

Could be that you are trying to install a pre-SP3 version of XP on a SATA hard drive. If that's the case you can supply the drivers on a floppy disk. Press F6 as the boot from the CD starts and it will prompt you to insert a driver disk.
