XP SATA Drivers For Compaq Presario F572US
Hi,
Can someone direct me to XP SATA disk drivers for a Compaq Presario F572US? HP supplies that model only with Vista drivers. XP drivers exist for other models that use the same chip sets but I don't know which ones. A Google search hasn't been productive. XP install does not have a SATA driver; it must be provided separately. Thanks, Gary |

I've converted a different Presario which seems to have the same nVidia 6150 chipset from it's original factory Vista installation to XP and did not need XP drivers for SATA, just the nVidia chipset driver which should be he http://search.hp.com/redirect.html?t...002_USEN&pos=1 If their ridiculously long link doesn't work, go to their site ( http://www.hp.com ) and search for " sp33411" Installing XP, nothing in particular was necessary, just install the OS then the drivers as expected. |

The Asus M2NPV-VM should have similar issues, to that Go 6150/430 laptop. http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/...6_m2npv-vm.pdf If you go to section 3.2.4 "Make Disk Menu", they address what floppy driver diskettes the motherboard CD can make. Notice they are mainly interested in SATA RAID, which implies an F6 install is not required for non-RAID. ( Various drivers and the manual are here. ) ftp://ftp.asus.com.tw/pub/asus/mb/socketAM2/M2NPV-VM/ You can example the Makedisk utility here, and see it has similar files to a subsection of Kony's download link. Downloading from the http server is a lot faster. http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/mb/...akeDisk_XP.zip I'd try it first, without an F6 driver. And preferably, with a WinXP CD slipstreamed to one of the more recent service packs. (The WinXP CD I bought a couple months ago, was already at SP3, so didn't need any further tweaking.) Paul |

Paul On the Compaq/6150 I was working on they had set it to non-raid and no option to enable raid in the bios. |
