HP Compaq Presario V3000 Laptop
Tags: Compaq, HP, laptop, notebook, Presario, V3000, xp
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 I think probably it will work for Windows Vista by default and Windows XP drivers slightly outdated.

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.

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…

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

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.

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.
