I really don't know where else to ask :S.
There's this sony vaio vgn-nr130fe (horrible names btw) that I want to reformat and install XP instead of Vista. However since this computer had already been reformated and it had a crappy version of XP I tried to activate the compatibility mode for the SATA hard drive, and the option didn't appear. I can't reinstall vista because none of the sony drivers will work (I installed the dell version of vista, since that's the only one I have... it didn't work out).
The only thing that works in this thing is Ubuntu. Anyways... what I'm asking is if anyone knows how I can reinstall windows XP because I keep getting this annoying screen saying "no hard drive was found ... press F3 to exit" and I looked for an answer in forums... None of them were very helpful... the closest one to an answer said to download nlite. But I'm not sure how to use it, I can't install the driver onto my xp cd.
Can anyone please help me out?
I've already downloaded the drivers, including the HDD compatibility one... but Nlite doesn't let me install the drivers I keeo getting and error sign :S.
