I got a Lenovo M58 today with an Intel MoBo and the trick there was to
disable AHCI in the SATA settings. After that I had no problem booting
and installing with my XP-SP3 CD.

So far, all
new PC's I've encountered still have drivers for XP if you
go to their website.
The trick to recognizing SATA is to set it to "Compatible" instead of
"Native" in BIOS. Once you've installed the proper driver you can set
it back to Native.
Nahh...didn't work on these Intel motherboards. I tried all three
modes available in BIOS. None of them worked.
