Solve the problem of SATA hard disk installed XP system

Generally, it is a blue screen when installing XP or a copy file fails when installing half of it! This is generally a problem with the hard disk. This is not to say that there is a problem with the physical of the hard disk, which is a problem on the software. Serial ATA hard disk, serial ATA bus application embedded clock signal, has a stronger error correction capability, the biggest difference compared with the past is that it can reflect on the transmission instructions (not just data), if you create errors Proactive correction, which greatly improves the reliability of data transmission. The serial interface also has the advantages of simple structure and hot swapping. Therefore, notebooks generally adopt SATA hard disks. This is caused by the shortage of support for SATA hard disk mode in the XP installation process. In general, vista fully supports SATA hard drives. So there is no such problem when installing Vista, and there is no solution to install XP failure in the official. Now, based on personal experience, the following solutions are given. I hope that I can sponsor my friends:

The solution is to enter the BIOS, find the SATA settings, generally in the Config item, change the SATA mode to Disable or Compatible Mode (compatible mode), each BIOS version has different specific options, but generally two Item, after entering, select another item different from the current item. At this point, we should be able to install Windows XP normally, but after the installation is completed, there is no advantage of the serial port hard disk, so I also need to install the SATA driver. IBM has developed a patch under Windows XP, and according to N multi-person testing, most notebooks can be used. First, we download a driver called ThinkPad Intel(R) Matrix Storage Manager, double-click to unwind, double-click install in the PREPARE folder, the default installation is OK, then restart, enter the BIOS, change the SATA settings back to the enabled state. . Entering the Windows system will prompt you to find new hardware. After the driver installation wizard appears, select “No, not this time”. After that, you can use some drivers or drivers to scan the driver or install the driver. After the above steps, the SATA hard disk is ready for operation.
