I got past the blue screen. You might want to try this latest XP SATA driver from HP instead of the driver from Gigabyte.

I also pressed F5 at the start and selected
“Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) PC.”

So after all of the installation, my speaker on/off indicator works but always remains orange instead of changing from white to orange to indicate on or off. Does anyone have a fix for this… if so, please email me at warpcorp@swbell.net.
Thanks
