I do not expect that to be too difficult, however I hope. Many thanks for your response; sorry that I did not get a chance to post this information and save you the trouble of posting but only got the partition and system up and running a little while ago and have not yet even started the other installs I need to do on same.
Glad to hear you have this working now as i have the same issue, could i ask what drivers did Intel point you towards? When extracted, the drivers and I included all modules extracted, not just. Thank you for the link. I had seen it while researching the whole installation, although I ultimately went about the slipstreaming a bit differently, using a folder with both SATA AHCI drivers and ethernet NIC drivers specifically for the hardware in question.
My only remaining issue now is to find a way to bring up a valid dual boot menu. I had WinXP functioning in its partition but cannot access it now as my laptop choked on the VisaBootPRO dual boot menu installation process and will either boot into Vista or emit an error message.
I am going to have to research that for a bit, and perhaps find a different tool to enable the dual-boot process. Once I restore the original state via Acronis True Image the installation itself will be pretty cut-and-dried, as I have done it several times by now. Note that for some reason when booting WinXP via the menu created above I must choose WinXP twice on 2 separate menus, although when booting Vista I need only choose once. This is a minor glitch which I hope to track down and fix shortly, as I remember seeing a post about that problem somewhere on the net.
When I established the menu, I found that choosing WinXP to boot to would not work - I kept getting a message about missing or corrupted boot files. I then found this posting:. COM 2 gave links to copy the last two and 3 gave instructions as to the necessary contents of boot.
None of the three files are needed by Vista, hence their absence; they are, however, needed for Windows XP to boot successfully. I would not be surprised if other issues cropped up from time to time but the basic dual boot seems to be accomplished. But After installation when it went to reboot , after boot it showed another BSD and immidiately rebooted. So I dunno what exactly was failed. Now I cant run Vista neither HP. Sorry to hear of your difficulty. If you cannot boot into your system I suspect that your only choice is to go back to factory settings and proceed from there.
I realize that this will seem like locking the barn door after the horse has been stolen, but in order to avoid your quandry I have adhered to two unwavering procedures, and I recommend the first one unquestionably and some version of the 2nd as well:.

If you purchased a pre-built system or third-party motherboard, contact your manufacturer for the latest updates and technical support information. The specification includes a description of the interface between system software and the host controller hardware.
Solution The downloads from the Intel site, in addition to being difficult to locate, have incorrect instructions for extracting them without installing them in the ReadMe file. After the semicolon ; is an example of optional text that can be used to identify which.
