    Windows XP Installation Error


    I'm trying to install Windows XP on an HP DM1 laptop that's currently running Ubuntu 11.01. I have an OEM Windows XP Pro SP2 disk that I'm using to boot. Ideally, I'd like to dual-boot with XP and Ubuntu, however I can't get past the initial installation screen. After it finishes loading the drivers for install, this screen pops up. There's no option in the BIOS settings to change anything that it lists in the error message,

    Any ideas?

    First check for all the Win XP drivers for your HP Pavilion DM1 hardware.

    Turn AHCI to IDE in bios - if there is this option.
    Or use a AHCI driver.
