How to update drivers for HDD in PC with no operating system ???


I had some problem in window XP pro installation in my HP media center edition A1524N desktop PC . I have ordered for system recovery disc but it will take approx 2 weeks and i can鈥檛 live without computer because of my business. So i tried a copy of window XP pro which might be 2002 version or older ...so when i tried to install it in my computer ..installation went so well but after restarting when i removed my Xp installation CD , i was unable to boot my computer ..so i have checked all the boot sequences already which seemed okay to me ...so now somebody suggested me that i shd update drivers for my hard drive ..but i dont wanna detach it from the system coz its warranty would expire if i do that ..is there any way i can install updates my HDD drivers ..its bit difficult for me right now coz i cant access my computer鈥檚 operating system ..
Please hel p

One of three things could have happened here.

Something happened during the installation. did you do a repair, or did you delete the existing partitions, reformat and then reload?

You have a dying or dead hard drive.

You have a SATA hard drive that requires drivers to be installed during the XP install. Note when it says hit f6 to load additional drivers. Those will need to be downloaded and loaded on a floppy. When you hit f6 it will searcht he floppy for the drivers. And yes, it must be a floppy. You can not get those drivers installed without a floppy.

hdd drivers are for the operating system.

If you're system won't boot, then it's not your hdd drivers that are causing a problem.

When it boots up it goes through a black screen with some text on it. Once past there it should try to load windows.

If you don't get to the point where it tries to load windows, most likely you have a hardware problem or a misconfigured setting in your BIOS

If it does try to load windows, you should be able to do a selective startup to see what's causing the windows problems.
