You can find the drivers that you need at the manufacturer's website for your model of computer....they must be XP drivers and if none are listed you will have to search for the drivers.

This is the web page...it contains all the XP drivers that you may need for your laptop (if you gave us the correct model...V3000....there is a model V3000T and the drivers are different)

Select software and drivers*

The file you need to put on the disc is the Intel SATA AHCI Controller Driver located towards the bottom of the page.

My laptop model is Compaq Presario V3431TU...
