Hi,
I have got Compaq SR2019UK from ebay!
The specs from CPU-Z are quite different from hp site and also, I tried to load XP sp3 and the message I get is that the specs of my pc don't support sp3.
Wheres the fault!?
Thanks.

ps ask for info which may help geeks to help me.
I followed
http://www.hardwareheaven.com/motherbo...r-systems.html
and could not find Find the Channel your harddrive is on, uncheck the "Let BIOS select transfer mode" and manually set the transfer mode to
"Seral ATA generation 2 - 3G"
( you will have to restart your computer)
**This will only work if your harddrive supports SATA-II ! Do not use this trasnfer mode if the harddrive is only compatible with SATA-I ; data corruption could result in the worst cases.
