Hello everyone,
I currently have a HP Compaq nx7300 laptop with VISTA business installed.
I want to install XP pro onto the machine instead but keep getting the same problem. During installation I get the blue screen of death telling me to deactivate the driver named pci.sys. It seems other people have had the same problem even when carrying out clean installs onto a new hard-drive so I don't think it's anything to do with VISTA.
What I've done/tried so far:
Made an XP pro disk with SP2 slipstreamed onto it and also have the SATA drivers installed onto a floppy which I access during installation using a USB floppy drive.
I'm really stuck and pulling my hair out as nothing has worked!
Please help,
James
