Hello, Im trying to dual boot Windows 8 and Windows XP. However, when I put my DVD installation disk of windows xp setup it starts normally... Great stuff so far. But after reading and installing the components when it says Starting Windows... 5 seconds pass and the laptop shuts down its self.. No restart to the setup automatically?!
Additional info
Pre-installed Windows 8 on SSD I split the SSD into two drives so one could boot from Windows 8 and other from Windows XP.
When I brought my laptop it came originally with HDD never tried to install XP on the HDD so unsure if its the SSD's fault but Windows 8 works like charm when I installed it on the SSD.
