Hi, Yesterday I bought a HP Mini 210-1084TU with FreeDos since I have a Windows XP SP3 Disc with me. I have tried various methods but all bore no fruit :(

methods I tried

http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Operating-systems-and-software/SATA-drivers-for-XP-solution-on-0x0000007B-BSOD/td-p/114120

http://translate.google.com/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=en&ie=UTF-8&layout=1&eotf=1&u=http%3A%2F%2Farieksinggih.wordpress.com%2F2010%2F02%2F02%2Finstal-
xp-di-hp-mini-210%2F&sl=auto&tl=en

In above method with or without slipstreaming sata drivers there occurs an BSOD with STOP: 0x0000006B (I'm sure its 0x0000006B)

I have also copied all the files to a thumb drive and started the setup from dos mode \i386\winnt.exe
I had to stop midway as setup kept reporting numerous files missing.

I have also tried more than one copy of Windows Xp Setup with success at all...

Any Suggestions ? solutions? working methods?

Hello, did you get this work ?
I'm having same laptop (mini 210 - 1084tu) and I had same problems with installing win xp sp 3 however , just few days back I solved it using slipstreaming and nLite software.The problem is , the OS which you are trying does not contain the drivers for Harddisk.

To slipstream you will need the following driver for the drive.

For nLite use the following URL for "How to ?"
