A Blue-screen Problem during Installation of WindowsXP at ThinkPad

When Max tried to install WindowsXp on a fresh now ThnikPad, he encountered a blue-screen problem as the system boot from WindowsXP CD. More specifically speaking, after the scanning of hardware and before loading the windows setup program. From the inform on the blue-screen, it seems that something related with hard drive is wrong.

After some googling, it is found out that XP CD cannot recognize Serial ATA in ACHI. The solution is change the configuration in BIOS.
Config -> Serial ATA (SATA) > Set AHCI to Compatibility
