It should install the drivers during setup.

Appeared to install fine, but upon restart when Windows starts up, it BSOD’s with a 7B. Does it not install the drivers during setup?

This worked like a charm! I had no issues and did not have to pre-format the sata drive.

No, it didn’t…but I read somewhere XP SP2 could do erros so I tried with XP SP1 and everything was OK, take care with the Geforce 7050 XP Driver

Did you re-install? It may fix the problem.

This is the best post I have found to solve my problem. I have recently bought an acer aspire m1640 and I was desperate because I could not install XP. Thanks a lot, you are the best.

My Gravatar seems to be very deceptive. I’m a guy :) hehe

See the PRE-REQUISITES for the driver. I don;t know if we have the same model, but if we do, then you can use the Textmode driver.
