Hi guys. I wanted to dual boot xp with win7. However, when I tried to load the windows xp cd just now, halfway it showed BSOD, stated that my hardisk is corrupted and remove newly installed hard drive controllers etc. May I know what's going on? Confused.

You need either to set from AHCI to IDE in BIOS or slipstream your XP installer with AHCI driver...

Thanks lee. Changed to IDE and managed to install windows xp. Since Asus doesn't provided xp drivers for A42jv, I just used xp drivers for A42F. However, there's a problem. The wireless driver doesn't work for A42jv. blush.gif Anyone can provided wireless xp driver for this lappie? Your help is much appreciated.
