Laptop Proline M760S (Thank you Mike for the drivers) Originally came out with Vista.

Loading WINDOWS XP Pro SP2

It was suggested I try load Xp on the laptop itself. It was a mission because the DVD Drive was non FUNCTIONAL but I managed with a USB Flashdisk.

Now it freezes during setup the moment we get to the part where the user has to put prefferences in. When i do it fast I can get as far as where it asks for the key CODE and then it freezes on me before I can type it in..

So something tells me the windows XP generc drivers are conflicting somewhere. Is there a way around this?
