Are there any issues with dual boot platform that I need to know about? I see a few people have mentioned the MBR issue and just dont want to waste time on the set up if the system platform is unstable.

Re: XP drivers for new system (10 replies, posted in Software)
I was finally able to install XP Pro by using the C: partition on this system. It seems that I could not install XP on the D: partition and received the error.
Error
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
Winnt_root\System32\Ntoskrnl.exe
Please re-install a copy of the above file.
I will now try to integrate drivers mentioned using DP Chipset since the manufacturer does not have XP drivers.
Since this is a brand new quad core computer I now may be able to dual boot with Win7. Does anyone have any with dual boot platform?

BIOS settings - AHCI or IDE
DP_MassStorage_wnt5_x86-32_1209 - tried using nLite to slipstream XP with this DP
XP Mode does work with Win7
Tried to set up dual boot with Win7 but get the same error
1. I also tried XP 32 bit w/SATA drivers
2. Tried changing BIOS settings
Since this is a brand new laptop, how do you inject the DP?
I only need to inject SATA drivers with XP
It seems if I integrate drivers with a brand new XP iso, this may solve my problem.

I really need help to install XP Pro on a new quadcore system since the owner does not want Win7 and is stuck on using Outlook Express. How do I inject the drivers ( SATA drivers ) so XP will recognize my hard drive now?
The system came with Win 7 so I plan to remove Win7 and just use XP. I removed Win7 but cannot install XP Pro and now stuck on the following error:
Windows could not start because the following file is missing or corrupt:
Winnt_root\System32\Ntoskrnl.exe
Please re-install a copy of the above file.
The XP Pro CD I have appears to let me see the SATA hard drive, but I cannot install XP after the files copy process.
I also tried using nLite and the DP_MassStorage but get the following error:
Line 171 of the INF file \ i386 \ txtsetup.sif is invalid
1. what's the best way to inject the drivers for XP Pro 64 bit system?
2. system specs are for the following platform
Gateway NV75S32u NX.WZ9AA.002 Laptop Computer -
AMD Quad-Core A6-3420M 1.5GHz, 4GB DDR3
3. is there a tool to just extract the drivers from my CD and create a new iso with another XP Pro 64 CD?
I am really stuck on this issue so any help will be really nice.
All of my XP CD's give me the same error message so I am hoping to just create a new CD with the drivers for the SATA hard drive
