Hey guys i really need your help! I want to install windows xp and when i try to install it, it tells me that the hardrive is not plugged in or powered. This cannot be because im using the hardrive right now because im using linux. Do you know what i have to do to make it work?

Maybe is a SATA drive? You need the drivers...

Is the hard drive partitioned? Are you trying to dual boot or replace Linux with windows. The windows installer probably doesn't like the Linux partition.

PC performance buffs have long measured hardware advances using a few simple metrics: Is it faster? Is it bigger? Does it have more blinky lights?
