Hi! Today i decided to give a try at my old Windows Vista (that came with the system), and it was laggy and crashy before, but now i have 2GB RAM and i wanted to give a re-try at that "resource hoggy".
But, as it installed, Windows 8.1 doesn't even detect it, the Metro bootloader ignores the existance. Any help that could be given? Even msconfig doesn't detect it.

i also tried to boot from the HD itself, but apparently it gives me a BSOD.
 
Solution
Give us some more detail.
What do you mean by "Win 8.1 doesn't detect it"?

You're trying to install this?
Or does this exist on a different drive?
Is the same exact system as it was originally with Vista?
