Someone gave me an Inspiron 1525 to look at because it would "freeze" on her. The laptop belongs to an animal rescue.
The laptop came originally with Vista Basic and someone installed a retail copy of Windows 7 Home Premium.
The laptop would go into endless repair loop when the BIOS SATA setting is in AHCI. It would only boot up cleanly to Windows 7 if I change the setting to ATA.
Is this a problem?
