I have tried just about everything to resolve this problem. I made a Slipstream disk included SP3 files, SATA Drivers Spent Hours on line seeking a solution. AllI have got for my efforts is The Evil Blue Screen.
I have looked your model number up on ASUS.I know through experience that XP will not install in AHCI,so set your bios to sata mode.When you are installing XP and it gives you the option to format your hard disk,select full format.If none of that works,download the manual from the ASUS website and you might be able to find the solution to your problem.
