Hello,
My friend has given me his web-book. It has two drives, one solid state and one HDD. I am currently trying to install XP onto the machine but for some reason when I install it on the solid state, everytime it comes to the GUI phase of the XP installation it throws a blue screen.
I have came to the conclusion that it may work on the HDD instead. The problem is that the XP cd does not see the HDD. I believe this is due to the fact that the HDD is formated in EXT4.
I have tried many differnt ways to get it converted back to a dos file system. Ive tried Hirens boot cd and even KNOPPIX to format it. Hirens does not see the disk in most HD tools and in the few it does see it, when I format it XP still cant see it. When I format it with KNOPPIX it says its in NTFS, but again I cant see it with the XP cd.
Can anyone please help
