Hi,

I am trying to install Windows XP on a DELL precision 370 workstation. However, during the installation i get the following error " Windows XP cannot find the harddisk installed. Please press F3 to Quit".

I don't know what needs to be done to resolve this issue. Please help !!

Thanks,
Diganth

Is it a SATA drive?
If that is the case maybe you need to load the sata drives by pressing F6 when installing windows.

Good luck
