We have a Acer Aspire One netbook here.

The hard drive complete crashed & we couldn't recover the data from it. So we bought a new 160SATA 2.5" drive for it but now we can't install Windows XP without getting the hard drive controller for it.

I'm using an external DVD/CD with the Origional XP with Service pack 3.
Pc will not acknowledge that there is a SATA drive in the machine. When I push F6 to install the SATA drivers it can't see the Flash disk.



Is there a website I can download the SATA controller drivers so I can boot up with a Stiffy disk?

Here is the link to the Netbook but can't see a "boot disk" option to download. ]]> Computer Software Steel http://www.pcbg.co.za/threads/12175-Acer-Aspire-One-AO531H <![CDATA[[Help] Windows XP Pro]]> http://www.pcbg.co.za/threads/12157-Windows-XP-Pro?goto=newpost Thu, 02 Sep 2010 10:36:12 GMT
Hi

I have a clients Windows XP Professional system here.

Took out the hard drive & scanned for viruses. Got over 300.

The userinit.exe was corrupt & I replaced it. But when i start it up it doesn't boot into Windows or safe mode. Just hangs as it's about to load.:O

Any help will be great!

Well, here's another ! :)

While using the Stumble Upon add on for Firefox, I found a rather useful list of freebie utilities - perhaps there are some that might interest you ?

Let's also not forget the Open Source Alternative which has some neat programs that sometimes seem even better than the pay for alternatives.
