    Xp Install On A Vista Machine

    Locked

    by nathan · about 15 years, 4 months ago

    I recently purchased a new Sony Vaio laptop with Vista Business pre-installed for work.
    I want to install XP over Vista but when i get to the install screen and select the install XP option, i get an error message saying that there are no hard drives plugged in, and the set-up ends.
    I have spent hours trying to get XP to install but am at my wits end with it now!
    Hopefully there’s someone on here who can help me
