Do you have the XP cd???? Does not sound like it. If you have the cdrom and it is in the cd drive and you get the above message it means you need to load a driver during the install. Download the cdrom driver from toshiba's web site and install it when XP install says hit f6 to install additonal drivers [seen in lower left corner during the hardware detection phase]
