I have a Compaq desktop computer that is running Windows XP. When I turn it on I get a message that reads; Boot Disk Failure, Please insert system disk. I have tried to diagnose the problem and it seems to be the hard drive. I have an older computer hardrive with Windows 98 and I have put it in as the slave. I can get the old hard drive to boot but the newer will not. Do you have any suggestions on how to retrieve the information from the bad hard drive.
Thanks,
Chris
