Are the hard drives in AHCI mode? I tried installing XP on a new machine a few months back and couldn't get it to work at all until I went into the bios and turned off AHCI mode. I heard later that apparently you can slip a driver into the XP install media, but if that's the problem it's probably just easier to turn it off. -- Tanner Lovelace http://wtl.wayfarer.org/ (fieldless) In fess two roundels in pale, a billet fesswise and an increscent, all sable.
