Problem Installing Windows XP with Windows 7 preinstalled
I purchased Windows XP Pro OEM which said it was for installation only with a new PC and I am trying to install on a partition of my hard drive which has Windows 7 Pro installed. When I restart the computer with the setup CD in place the install begins but I do not get the option of selecting which drive to download to. If I select install the installation begins and seems to load but in the end I get a BSOD and am warned about continuing. Is this because I have not loaded SATA drivers or is it because the OEM software cannot be loaded on a partitioned hard drive? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
