I have a Compaq Presario C774TU. It came with Vista Basic Home on it, and I wiped it and have had Arch Linux on it for the past year.
I'm now giving the laptop to my bother who wants XP on it. I have a licensed copy of XP SP3 and decided to install...
However it would go to a black screen shortly after 'Inspecting hardware'. Tried disabling the native SATA support, no luck. I've also tried creating a custom install disk using nLite and the Windows SATA drivers, however it still does the same thing.
Any ideas?
