XP reinstall

I have received some stop errors on my Dell PC. I have tried booting from the CD to enter the recovery console. When I choose R to enter, I get a screen indicating no hard drives are in my system. When I go into the BIOS, it clearly shows the hard drive. When I do a test of the hard drive(ctrl-alt and D 3 times at the Dell logo) it tests fine. So, the hardware sees the drive but XP set-up can not. Dell told me to recheck the connections but if the hardware already sees it, I wouldn’t think it would be a connection issue. Has anybody else run into this before?
