I bought Presario C793TU b ut when I installed Windows XP SP2, it can install because it can not detect disk. “unknown disk “.
Please advice on what to do with this.
Thank you.

disabling the SATA should do the trick, and that is what I did in the BIOS when you will have the option to Disable SATA operations

Yes, this method is 100% good.
But this “trick” likes little different on another model of notebook.
May by looks like this:
IDE MODE = switch to IDE (raid,sata,ide..)
SATA NATIVE = switch DISABLED (disabled,enabled)
Sorry for My poor english
