Reformatting WIN7 system to XP
Hey everyone,
I had an old thread on Windows 7 running really unreliable on my system, and after speaking with a Sony support person today, I've found out that Sony does not support Windows 7 on my system. It's a bummer but, at any rate, I'm trying to put Windows XP back on the system.
I've downloaded the Windows XP Professional with SP3 from MSDN student website.
I have the ISO burned to a disc, and I boot the computer from CD drive.
After the initial setup, it ask to start windows and press enter.
I do so, and I says to select the drive I wish to reformat.
There are four slots, all of which say "No drive found"
Whenever you press ANY button, I get a BSOD.
Any reason as to why it doesn't recognize any drives, or why I can't get any further into the process without it crashing?
Is there another way to reformat?
