Cannot install XP on Presario C700 Series (c714nr)

No Vista recovery cd. Reformatted Hitachi 120 GB HD looks like it want to reinstall XP but XP disc indicates he sees not all fixed disks. I've wiped drive and brought back to factory specifications, then fdisk and format, but nothing helps. Searched the web for answers, but nothing helped. Any help greatly appreciated, thanks

Enter the BIOS by pressing F10 at startup. If you have the option of Bios Setup to disable the native sata mode, XP will install without problem, no sata driver needed. It will be on the tab of the System Configuration.


If you do not have the setting in the Bios, it's the driver sata for your machine:

  • Cannot install Qualcomm Atheros QCA 9000 Series Wireless LAN Driver for Microsoft Windows 8.1

    I tried several times to install the driver Qualcomm Atheros QCA 9000 Series Wireless LAN for Microsoft Windows 8.1 in my HP 2000 Notebook PC via HP Support Assistant.  It downloads fine and looks through the installation process, but returns a gray "x" and seems not to install this driver.  Have same problem with Cyberlink Media Suite 10-Office Update, also.

    @WalterPowers,

    Thanks for posting.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the wizard for help where, you may not be able to install the drivers using the program. I would like to troubleshoot the software itself by following the ideas of SuperMario1 in this thread: http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Desktop-Operating-Systems-Software-Recovery/HP-Support-Assistant-Window...

    Also, you can try to install the Qualcomm and Cyberlink yourself. If you go to HP.com, click on support and troubleshooting omn. Drivers and downloads, enter the model number of the laptop, in research. You will be brough to a page where you can select drivers for your product, after selecting a BONE.

  • Cannot install Vista on Qosmio G-series

    Hello

    I can't install Vista, first of all, he says that I can not updated the Media Center to XP to vista professional.

    And drivers RAID Toshiba that I downloaded from the download & support homepage here, do not work.

    What is the problem?

    Hello

    I also recommend the Vista installed on the formatted HARD disk or on the new partition.
    The RAID driver should certainly work. On the Toshiba page, you will find a version of Vista. Simply download and install from external USB FDD or USB.
    Vista will recognize the USB with no problems. On my laptop, it works fine.

  • Compaq presario C700 (C750EL): SSD info and motherboard

    I have a C750EL with T8100 processor and 3 GB of RAM, BIOS F.35

    I would like to know if it is possible to install a SSD HDD into the WiFi slot (mini PCIe, right?)

    my intention is to put a SSD quick 32-64 GB with operating system to boot from instead of internal WiFi and maintain my 250 GB SATA HD for data.

    someone has the manual of the motherboard with features complete? (not the simple maintenance manual)

    I can't find any doc on this mobo from 30 9 HP...

    I would like to install also the internal camera... any info?

    Thanks to all you guys

    The SSD into the slot wireless cannot be done. The slot is solely for a wireless card only. Even if an SSD in this location would be "mount" (it will not) it will not be bootable.

    HP does not have a manual of the complete motherboard available. The best thing that it would be maintenance and Service of Guide.

    Your only way to add an SSD is the 2.5 inch SATA variety, and you could put a second hard drive in an optical bay adapter. I think that your optical drive is mini-IDE but if it is not the fastest thing, probably ATA-33.

  • cannot install upgrade cs5.5 to cs6

    I design cs5.5 installed STD, bought cs6 design std upgrade, but cannot install, I get messages, this series is valid, but not for this version. I checked the series and that's the one I received we bought CS5.5. I was in 'line' in the chat during the last two hours. How can I install the product?

    Thank you

    When you start the upgrade of the cs6, you will be asked the cs6 serial number.  After you have entered this installation will proceed if your cs5.5 installation is detected.  If the installation of cs5.5 is not detected you will be prompted to select a product qualification (select cs 5.5) and then you will be prompted for your serial number cs 5.5

    Enter the correct number at the right time and proceed with the installation.

    Hello

    Please answer suite

    1. how to get the maximum for components upgrades

    CPU / SODIMM given the configuration of the model Compaq Presario C797EE mentioned at the end.

    2. Why is there BIOS ver F.35 for Presario C700 when later offered is the worm F.34 bios on HP web. What is the difference. Where can I find both to be uploaded with the release notes. New BIOS on model C797EE allows processors support Intel Core 2 Duo X 9000 and PC6400 SODIMM for 8 GB?

    3. There is evidence of success update here. Only difference is its Compaq Presario C797EE but C771US not and was able to upgrade CPU Core 2 Duo T9300. Is it possible to upgrade series C700 (C797EE) to Intel C2d Extreme X 9000 processor. If this is not the case, what is the max for the chip set used in C797EE.

    4 NT are different for Intel T9300 and others by 35W 44W or any other factor, will they perform the upgrade, if yes then please provide last possible list compatible CPU my current chip-set

    Comparative analysis of the applications here are showing different results. Please see Sandra chipset readings compare to the results of CPU - Z.

    Hello, just let everyone know that my upgrade worked.

    -Processor

    Updated for intel T9300 as reference. probably could support the x 9000, but it was much more expensive is not a value

    -Memory:

    I was skeptical with past more than 4 GB, however, currently functioning 6 GB (2 X 4). foung are not accidents of errors due to modules. Works perfectly.

    . After these updates, I installed small SSD, which added to the startup that gave more boost to the system.

    . Replaced the DVD with Caddy drive through visruth, installed with 1 TB

    . Replaced with 12 cells battery

    Conclusion:

    This unit of 8 years demonstrated startup, transformation and loading speeds that could be compared to couple of old machines, 6 GB working memory space that can accommodate witout heavy programs using the file (actually disabled) Exchange and on the storage of Tera bytes to store every necessary thing making the year becomes mordern General phone use. Only thing that is not dealing with it is the graphics card. Besides that all is well, infact it runs more more fees than before.
