Fitting a second bootable hard drive

by michaelp.kearns . Updated 17 years, 10 months ago

Help Please —-I have installed a second 250gb hard drive.It is seen in the BIOS and it is showing healthy in disk management. I am trying to install Windows XP PRO on this disk as a seperate OS. The files install O.K. but just as files not an OS. When the files have loaded the PC reboots to setup again. (I do this with the main drive disconnected, SATA cable out.) Is there a way I can resolve this problem ‘sanely’.
Dell 9150, Windows XP Pro. Sata cable connect for all drives. Thank you ,Mike.
