RE: New Hard drive

I would think so, check out their website for your model and whatever else
that you would need to match the drivers with the hardware.

Since the hd will not boot, and you have no recovery disks, your up a creek
without a paddle, most likely you will have to buy XP ( if you can find it)
and then get the drivers for the hardware.

Too bad you didn't make a clone of your HD before it went belly up.

I have a Sony Vaio Model PCG-K15 notebook Running Windows XP That the hard
drive crashed on. I can not get into the system at all. I have purchased a
new western digital drive that will arrive in the next few days. The Vaio did
not come with any discs and when I spoke to them the other day they said
there are no startup up discs available for this machine. How can I get my XP
back into the machine? Can I download a boot disc on my other computer from
microsoft and then put it in my notebook to get the system started? Really at
a loss here an Sony is no help. Thanks
