The problem is with XP not having the proper drivers for the Hard drive controller in your laptop (SATA). Bios doens't seem to let us change much either...

Are you going to dual-boot, or are you replacing Vista?
The HP site has all the XP Drivers,an excellent FAQ and a good forum.

Best Solution is to disable Native SATA support in BIOS ,
Now Win XP will recognize the Hard Disk
