Win XP is getting installed in DELL Vostro 1015
I get blue screen, whenever I try to install Windows XP in my Dell laptop (Vostro 1015) where Windows 7 is running smoothly.
Why Windows XP is not getting installed in my laptop though the same Windows XP can easily be installed in my desktop.

You'll need to make sure your Windows XP disc has a minimum of SP3 on it, plus the required SATA driver - that is, you will need to make an updated install CD. If the disc is older than SP3 and/or doesn't have the right SATA install drivers on it, you will see a blue screen when you try to install.
There are a number of ways to produce an updated XP install CD - nLite, BartPE, etc., are among the easier ones to use.
