 formatting win 7 lappy - Victorbox
If it's a fairly new laptop you may find that not all the necessary Windows XP drivers exist for the laptop's hardware and you may find an original Windows XP installation CD doesn't understand SATA hard disks without loading the necessary drivers first. This can be a bit of a faff and could be why it's failing at the installation stage.
