HP Compaq Presario V3000 Laptop

Posted by Planet Malaysia on December 11, 2007

My friend bought a brand new HP Compaq Presario V3000 laptop(came with FreeDOS) last weekend during PC Fair (III) Kuala Lumpur trip.

FreeDOS? How to use? My friend ask me a stupid question, he didn't know it came without Microsoft Windows OS.  So I was suggest Ubuntu to him and he told me don't be crazy. Too bad! Another fellow not willing to try Linux :(

He hand over the laptop to me yesterday and I used to installed Ubuntu 7.10 and it work perfectly. Hey! Please do not said Linux don't have drivers anymore. Let's me tell you why?

After the fun, I have to continue with my task – install Windows XP. WTH? The Windows XP installation failed because lack of SATA /RAID drivers that couldn't found any hard disk. What to do? Google and found in the lowyat forum – "Installing XP with MassStorage(SATA/RAID) Drivers, Can't find HDD in XP Setup ?"

I did a reply and added to the post that without HP Compaq Presario V3000.

Please follow the step by step as below: 

1. download Intel Mass Storage(Intel 3600) from HP Compaq Presario driver page.

2. extract the 'SP32492.exe' in any other machine(it will go to c:\spsetup\SP32492 by default).

3. copy c:\spsetup\SP32492\*.* into your USB thumb drive.

4. attach your USB floppy drive into HP Compaq Presario V3000 laptop.

5. boot up from Windows XP installation disk.

6. look at bottom of the installation screen and hit F6 when it said F6 blah blah….

7. insert a floppy disk into external USB floppy drive, press "S" for supplier hardware device support disk.  Select Intel 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller(iaStor.sys).

8. basically the Intel Mass Storage SATA/RAID drivers loaded.

9. Windows XP installation continue for now. 

So? I think probably it will work for Windows Vista by default and Windows XP drivers slightly outdated.

    Could you help me? because I don’t have floppy ext. Maybe you can tell me how install win Xp without floppy. thank’s

  3. Planet Malaysia on December 25th, 2007 10:36 pm

    Jaya, I did tried with USB drive but no luck. I think the only solution is getting an ext floppy drive.

  4. ch3n on December 28th, 2007 3:07 pm

  6. ch3n on December 30th, 2007 12:36 pm

    i found another tips for installing win xp :

    -donwload tihs file http://www.siliconimage.com/docs/311…idvr-12057.zip —> unzip this file

    -after download the file, then inject sil3112.inf to win xp using nlite.

    -make an iso

    -then burn iso file to dvd

    -enjoy ur installation.

    another tips is u can buy WINDOWS XP BLACK EDITION.this os has already injected with sata raid driver.

  14. merro on January 22nd, 2008 2:21 pm

    i faced the same problem and could not sort it out that i going to give your tip a try

  15. John Silverblood on January 27th, 2008 4:10 am

    I’ve faced a similar problem on another HP laptop, but I’ve found a much easier way for Win XP setup to find disks. Press F10 when booting to go into the ROM SETUP menu, choose system configuration, device setup, and switch the SATA native mode to Disabled. Win XP installed with no problems.

  16. Vern at AimforAwesome on January 28th, 2008 10:50 am

    John – Great idea – and I’d prefer this one to everything else. Unfortunately in Asia – at least in Thailand – my compaq doesn’t have a bios setting that lets me disable sata.

    I have a solution for the Compaq v3680tu and all the drivers if anyone is interested. I created a small blog to talk about it – it’s at blogspot – the name is: http://thailand-compaq-presario.blogspot.com/ Finally I got everything working – the sound, mouse, buttons, ethernet controller and the rest of it in WIN XP. This computer is sold very cheaply without the operating system here in Thailand – and you’d think it’s easy to slap on Windows XP since it will take VISTA. NOPE. Very hard to find the drivers, it took me 3 days to get it all running. What a pain…

  17. sans on January 31st, 2008 9:22 am

    Thanks to John Silverblood,rayz & ch3n..i’ll try.

  18. Sasuke on February 27th, 2008 10:09 am

    I think you are using Windows XP SP1.
    Windows XP SP2 have fixed this problem already.
    Do try install Windows XP SP2.
    XP SP2 only have the same problem for AMD’s
    So If your notebook is AMD and using SATA HDD do use the tips.

  39. AirOne on June 26th, 2008 4:47 am

    Go into the bios setup and disable the Sata Nata Mode. Then boot and load your diskette sata drivers with the XP to see your hard drive.

  40. sans on June 28th, 2008 6:12 pm

    if my pc or notebook don’t have diskette player..what should I do?

Now i suggest here is, if you wanna buy a notebook better used AMD not because i support AMD but it’s pretty cool and more easeyer adn friendly user

    can Someone help, pls! Appreciate..

  72. cabgolf on September 24th, 2009 3:28 am

    Regarding no sound or ‘error-cant find ntldr’.

    If U get cant finf ntldr error, power off laptop & start again….this will overcome ‘ntldr error’.

    Had the same problem with sound & searched the internet for the solution. No joy there. Here it is….found it myself.

    1st you have to format the hard drive and use your windows xp cd etc etc.

    I installed windows XP home edition 2000 edition(no service packs) & had no sound.

    Forget the other suggestions & progressively install all the service packs via online downloads. When you have successfully installed service pack 3, bingo!..all the required drivers/firmware will be installed. Restart your computer once sp3 is installed & all will fine…I hope!

    Good luck.
