    I had a similar issue when installing it on my laptop. The problem is that the XP cd does not have the drivers for your hard drive. You need to get the drivers on a disk/cd and install them when you get to that screen that is giving you problems.

    Yep download the correct drivers dll inf whatever then when you are prompted press f3 or f6 (i think)to install 3rd party drivers. then you drive should be dectected.
