  Then I decidec to format my laptop Toshiba using Windows XP CD then there arrived a few steps, it gives the following error message:

  Setup did not find hard disk drivers installed in your computer.

  Make sure that the hard disk drivers are powered on and properly connected to your computer, and that no matter what disk - related hardware configuration is correct. It may be running a manufacturer - distribute diaagnostic installation program.

  The installation program cannot believe. To quit Setup, press F3.

  Could someone help me with this!

  Concerning

  Hello!

  Have you looked for a bit in the forum for this problem? You will find a large number of threads.

  However, you need the SATA drivers if you are installing your notebook computer with the Microsoft installation disc.
  I put t know what laptop do you have but for laptops equipped with Intel chipset, you need Intel Storage Manager.

  Download the drivers on the Web from Toshiba or Intel site, copy it to an external floppy drive and load it with F6 after booting from the CD.
  Or create you your own installation with nLite [www.nliteos.com] disc.

• Inspiron 5748, Crucial M500 - "internal hard disk not found".

  My Inspiron 5748 comes with w8.1 pre-loaded onto a standard 500 GB hard drive, but I wanted to move to an SSD. I have two M500s Crucial (the two 2.5 "); one with W7 loaded from another laptop, the other barely taken out of the box.

  With one of them installed, the message at startup after the dell symbol arrives is "internal hard disk not found", and while there is no bootable media found.

  In both cases, UEFI and back diagnonstics reporting tools that there is indeed a crucial m500 present and functional. Both work well in my other laptops (purchased separately).

  Is there a problem of formatting? There is no update available for this SSD firmware.

  Thank you!

  Hi Wazzbot,

  Use the recovery discs Windows 8.1 you prepared using the Dell printer utility to backup and restore Windows loading on the SSD drive. Because the disks are the same size, it should work without problem.

  If you try to install your laptop computer with the Microsoft installation disc, you need the SATA drivers. You can find it on the Toshiba site.
  You must load the drivers of an external floppy drive or you integrate into a new CD with nLite (www.nliteos.com).

  For the recovery disc you n t need these drivers because they are already on the disk.
  If you get the same problem with the recovery disk, you should check your disk with Drive Fitness Test (Google is your friend).

• How to get Windows XP in case of hard disk crash

  Hi, recently my hard drive got crashed and I lost my original Windows XP that came with my laptop pre-installed. I still have the key of Windows XP with me and I'm the only owner. Is their anyway to get it from Microsoft without any extra cost. Please let me know at * address email is removed from the privacy *.

  on laptops, operating system installation files are located on the hard disk, in a hidden place.

  These installation files can be launched / executed via a procedure known as 'factory restore '.

  a factory restore is then wipe the hard drive and install a fresh copy of the operating system of the manufacturer.

  Depending on the type of 'crash' you committed, you might be able to run a factory restore, but you will lose all your personal files too in the process.

  If the hard disk is still inside the laptop, then go into your mobile home site and look for the model number for instructions on performing a factory restore.

  either way, a hard drive crash is subjective interpretation.

  You may be able to fix it if you can borrow and xp cd from someone "or" via a startup disk that you can do on the internet.

  However, you will need to provide more information on your "crash."
