In short XP's last known good configuration option worked and the primary IDE drivers restored and the other enabled again.Īll working as it was before. Yay! Thank the IT gods and my diligence in putting in restore points before doing anything. All just to replace the missing IDE driver(s) - that'll teach me to fiddle.

If not then it looks like a repair install using the original WinXP disc is what I'm going to have to do. But I am going to have to do that after disconnecting the SSD with Win7 (and all other storage devices) or it'll try to use that instead. I left it at that as I was getting annoyed and frustrated but I'm going to try again and, hopefully, using the last known good boot option will work. Problem is that Safe mode started but then failed. I did as suggested and experimented with the F8 key and by tapping it at just the right point after the BIOS load point has past but before before the OS starts loading I was able to get into the familiar alternative XP boot options screen. But in disabling the other generic IDE drivers it won't now boot in IDE mode either. My assumption was that the two Intel Series 8 C220 Chipset SATA Controllers were the drivers being used, they were shown as working. I did put it back to IDE but I think I deleted or disabled the IDE drivers that is the problem. I think I'm probably going to have to disconnect all the Win7 stuff again and use the Windows XP install disc but if there is another solution then I'd be pleased to hear it. I can't use a Win7 restore point because I'd specifically turned off System Restore for the WinXP HDD prior to making both OS partitions invisible to each other.

Whatever the case I still need to know how to enter Windows Safe mode during boot.ĭoes anyone know? Is it just a timing thing and will it actually work if the HDD with XP isn't being seen because of the missing drivers? There's nothing in the manual about this so I'm a bit lost as to what to do next. The Gigabyte MB's BIOS menus use F8 and most of the other F keys are used for entering specific BIOS menu screens.
Trouble is that I can't get it to boot in Safe mode. No problem I thought, use System Restore. So I fiddled again and at some point disabled or unistalled the generic MS Primary and Secondary IDE mode boot drivers, the ones it must have still been using. Yet I couldn't get XP to boot in in AHCI mode, only IDE. In device manger I appeared to have installed compatible SATA Controllers OK as it was showing two Intel Series 8 C220 Chipset SATA Controller drivers in place and "working". Of course I put in a Restore Point first.

Stupidly I decided to mess with driver updates to see if I could get the XP OS HDD to boot in AHCI mode. When it was done I could boot in Win7 normally but by going into the BIOS and changing a couple of settings I could reboot into XP. Once installed I disconnected the SSD and installed WinXP (which I need for legacy software/hardware) on a HDD. I have a slightly unusual set up on my desktop: Win7 was installed as the prime OS on a SSD.
