pavilion n001-sq
Microsoft Windows XP (64-bit)

First of all, sorry for my bad english. I want to make a dual boot on my laptop (Hp Pavilion 15 n001-sq). My laptop don't have an option to change the sata to ahci for installing win xp. I tried to slipstream some drivers in a xp sp3 cd but still not working. I can't find the proper driver for my motherboard for slipstreaming. Any ideas?

Hi:

 

You can't install XP on a platform with the 4th gen core processors...as you found out, there is no XP SATA AHCI controller driver.

 

The last Intel platform that had support for XP was for platforms with the 3rd generation core processors.
