You need to change "Sata Operation" settings from byos settings then you will be able to install XP.

yeah u can install XP on 1545, just chant the Sata operation to ATA in BIOS and you would be able to install Xp

Dear Friends thanks a lot for your suggestion as it really helped me in installing Windows XP operating system on my Dell Inspiron 1545. ( For my notebook : It only worked with the latest Windows XP Service Pack 3 version and not with the Windows XP Service Pack 2 Version.) Thank you once again for saving my time.
I tried to install Windows XP in Dell Inspiron 1545t. The two SATA modes it had are ATA and AHCI.
Initially in the agreement, when pressed F8 it din't go to next page. I tried 2 more discs of XP. Finally went for a slipstreamed version.
The agreement was skipped as it was a slip streamed. But no disk drive could be found error is shown. Lateron when tried again it went to format process and got installed.
But few errors exist. I want to install XP properly in it. I was unable to load the SATA driver using my USB drive. It asks only for a floppy disk. Help me out.

JK

i buy inspiron 1545 last week .any one tell ma is it come with vista or not
In order to INSTALL Windows XP it on 1545 do the following:
Delete all the partitions except the one used by DELL boot - I did this from Linux with fdisk /dev/sda; works also from Windows installer.
Integrate the Intel GM45 chipset drivers (ALL directory in the drivers package) AND SATA drivers (32 bits version) into the Windows XP SP3 distribution - I integrated the drivers using TXT option and not PNP for SATA drivers. This way your disc will be seen at boot time and will successfuly install the XP.
The links for the drivers are from the dell website, 1545 drivers download page, Chipset /Intel Driver and SATA drivers/Intel Driver links.
I kept the ACHI SATA option from the BIOS and didn't changed it to ATA.
Good luck to all!
