That has nothing to do with SATA mode, Windows is telling you the laptop doesn't fully support modern power protocols.

 

To workaround it boot from the installation disc then when the message pops up to "hit F6 to install additional SATA or RAID drivers" hit the F7 key (yes I did say F7, that's not a typo) and XP should boot into non ACPI mode. Note you might have to hit F7 a few times for it to register. It will look as though nothing has happened, that's normal, it should just skip past the non ACPI error message.

 

If that doesn't work then reboot and hit F5 instead (at the same place) and you'll be asked to choose a machine type, from the list choose non ACPI compliant.

Can you set boot mode to "Legacy" in BIOS?

OP is trying to install XP on a machine that isn't ACPI compliant (so supports Windows 98 at the latest). Back in 1998 UEFI didn't exist at all and EFI had only just started being developed, at that point it was still called Intel Boot Initiative.

I tried the things you told but it showing "Setup did not find any hard disk installed"

What to do now??

Wait, why are you trying to install XP on a modern laptop?

My apologies, turns out the laptop is modern after all.

Your assumption seemed to make sense, but yeah; XP on a modern laptop?
