Blue Screen during Dual boot. HELP

[nizzex]

Hi guys

I'm following the Dual boot installation with Win7 installed first.
See here: http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/8057-dual-boot-installation-windows-7-xp.html

I get to step 3 fine, When setup has loaded setup files from CD, I get a blue screen error.

Can somebody help on what is causing this? Thanks

Are you following the warning in Step 3 to load SATA drivers?

Nope, didnt really think id need to, but guess not.

How would I get my SATA driver and find out which type it is?

No driver files fount on PC Manufacter site.

Seagate has a download section for driver. Can somebody instruct what I do next?

Will Win 7 boot?

 

[nizzex]

When I turn on the pc it boots on xp even though I partitioned it separetly on a 2nd partition.

Upon trying to load that blue error screen comes up all the time. System only finds the xp partition for some reason.

I deleted the created partition 2nd one which wAs for xp install, but still the system will try to boot from xp. I just want to be able to use xp

I used second option.
