Install WIN XP X64 on UEFI system.

Hello All!

I've tried to install WIN XP X64 on my current UEFI MB enabled system. For recovery/safe install I only leave one HDD connected to MB. Several tries have resulted in BSOD each time. Thoughts?

Why are you trying this? XP (especially the 64-bit version) will find a UEFI system "alien". Have you configured the UEFI/BIOS to run in legacy mode? If not, I don't see this working at all.

Also there are unlikely to be drivers for XP available for a modern motherboard even if you get past the UEFI issue.

Dugimodo :

This is undoubtedly true.

Thank you both for your answers. Obviously, I have a bit of research to do regarding UEFI MB's!
