Recovery Console doesn't see my sata drive
I have a XP Home laptop with a Sata HDD. I continuously get a BSOD on booting into standard mode (safe mode is OK) I wanted to boot to recovery console but when I attempt this I get a message saying that Setup cannot detect a HDD on my system. The BIOS correctly sees the drive. How do I circumvent this issue? Also is there a way to run SFC from safe mode as the system won't run in normal mode?

You may need to press the function key F6 at the beginning of the setup process for running Recovery Console to install your SATA drivers in order to continue with that tool.

Once you try nLiteOS, you will love it. You can add all kinds of stuff... chipset drivers, SATA drivers, Service Packs, Desktop Themes, unattended install...
