powaz Posted January 15, 2009 Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 Hi, I have an issue with my medion 96360, originally it should have win vista inside, but some cowboys reinstalled into xp, and now i get some viruses ect. and my system running quite slow. I decided to do clean install it dosent matter witch os will be inside vista or xp, but then i putting cd's and trying to install i get a black/blue screen.... xp:error: check your hardware vendor for bios update (i did bios update), disable BIOS memory (i couldnt find i this it dosent support such think)***stop: 0x0000008E ....***setupdd.sys....***symc810.sys...vista:win has problem communicating with a device connected to your computer....Status: 0xc00000e9Info An unexpected I/O error has occured. I quickly googled and get issue with sata drivers to installing xp, but how about vista?So I do not understand if it has xp it shouldn't be any problem to install vista, or could be that clean xp install deleted my sata drives or smth like....Actually i connected floppy and tried to install sata drivers for my hdd WDC WD1600BEVS, but its a little but tricky to find drivers for it. It possible that i mix something because i get message that setup looking for .txt file??? I read in some forum that xp(sp3) could slove this problem it has some additional drivers for hdd, but im not sure it's true ? My question maybe somebody familiar with such situation and could help me, or its easier to by new notebook ;) Thank You. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you can, and if it runs it should tell you just what is on your machine, and it would give you a clearer picture of what is going on.http://www.belarc.com/free_download.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

powaz Posted January 15, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2009 its possible that i need to define my drive in a RAID Array before win will see the drive?? Anybody know how to do such think ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
