HP Pavilion Laptop dv9000 UAA Audio Driver Problem SOLVED.Īlright guys, I'm like you. Hope this helps someone as I had a horrible time figuring out how to do this. This is my first post and I hope I didn't leave anything out or break a rule or something, lol. Reboot and choose which OS you want to boot to. You can also choose which entry you would like as the default the system will boot to.ĩ. Give the new entry a name (Windows XP, etc) and select the drive letter you have XP on then press Apply. Go to the Manage OS Entries tab and select 'Add new operating system entry' and make sure you select 'Windows Legacy'. Select 'Reinstall the Vista bootloader' and press Apply.Ĩ. Now, install and run VistaBootPro and open the Bootloader tab. You also need to copy the files boot.ini, NTDETECT.COM and ntldr and paste them to the root of your XP drive.ħ. Next, copy the folder Boot and the file bootmgr and paste it to the root of your XP drive. Next, open Windows Explorer and go to the drive where Vista is installed. First, make sure you have set your folder options to be able to see hidden files and unhide protected operating system files. Before you run the program, you need to copy some files to the drive you put XP on. Net Framework version 2.0 at least for the next step.Ħ. Anyway, download at least the Ethernet/Network adapter drivers so you'll be able to use the internet.Ĥ. I actually had to pick a different model laptop as I didn't see drivers available for mine, but I picked a model that was very close and the drivers work fine. I had to go to HP's website and download a bunch of different drivers for XP. After installation is complete the computer should boot into XP.ģ. Choose to install XP on the unused drive (The one that Vista isn't on). Restart the computer with the XP retail cd in.

First, follow the above instructions to turn off SATA Native Support.Ģ. Also, I have 2 seperate hard drives in my laptop and I placed each OS on individual drives, not a seperate partition on the same drive.ġ. Therefore I had to have Vista installed first. Note: I only had the Recovery Disk for my laptop, not an individual Vista Ultimate cd. For those of you who would like to dual boot Vista and XP, it's a little more complicated, but not much. Now you can put your XP cd in and it will detect your hard drives. Then Hit F10 to Save and Exit, and choose yes. Now, if you're trying to install XP only then all you need to do is go into the bios setup, go to System Configuration, go down to SATA Native Support and set it to Disabled by using the F5/F6 keys. I have a critical piece of software that only works with XP, but I didn't want to get rid of Vista. I recently purchased an HP Pavilion dv9260nr laptop and was having the same problems as you guys.
