Panasonic CF-53 XP issue

[AutoExe3219]

Hi,
Can I install the XP system on the CF-53 MK4?
If yes, what should I do?

Regards.

I recently tried to install XP on a newer laptop to run older programmes. XP doesn't have the SATA drivers for the hard disk (assuming you are installing it on a different disk rather than a partition on the existing disk!) and I fell at the first hurdle: disk manufacturers no longer provide support for XP so I couldn't find the driver for the disk!

It seems that the Pnasonic is designed for W10. You may find that you cannot get drivers for XP for the hardware on the motherboard, for the same reason.

If you are trying to put XP on a partition on the existing disk you may get past the first hurdle if you can find the driver for the disk somewhere in what is already installed, but you will still most likely find that stuff doesn't work and you cant get XP drivers for them.
