Solved Win XP X64 On HP 8000 ELITE

  • 1

Hi obsolete, I have the same HP 8000 ELITE small form factor system and also getting the BSOD when running the XP x64 setup, modified with nLite 1.4.9.1. HP has all the drivers, but finding the correct ones, there are so may choices, to get past BSOD is extremely hard. I am trying to ressurect some legacy software that can only run on systems up through Vista, so any guidance getting the correct ones would be awesome!

      The problem is almost certainly the SATA drive, which XP doesn’t recognize. You need to load the appropriate SATA driver at install time.

      It is very rare for software that runs on XP doesn’t run, with the appropriate compatibility settings, on later versions of Windows. Running XP in a virtual machine is one option.
