Boot Drive Failure, insert system disk.
P4 3.2
2Gigs DDr2 RAM
Windows XPpro on SATA Western Digital Drive (F)
Windows 2000 Pro on old drive not used (C)
Seagate 160 Gig drive (E)
numerous usb drives (Optical and media storage)
I tried to set the SATA Western Digital as my primary drive, C drive is still the old ATA drive set as master on the IDE channel with the CD drive as slave.
Computer will not boot unless WinXP Pro cd is in that drive. No change to the Bios seems to help, cutting power to all drives but the SATA didn’t work, the only configuration that works is the disc in drive. Once computer is running I can take the CD out, but I have to have it in to reboot.
Bios? CMos (if so, how do I fix)
Tempted to do a repair install of Windows Xp to see if that works
Help? Anyone?
