Problem: Windows XP(and install cd) wont boot after connecting SATA di


Recommended Posts

Hi, my friend has a little problem. He bought a new sata disc and connected it to the motherboard with pata disc allready connected to it. After this, xp is stuck on prompt in every boot. Safe mode loads all the libraries and then is also stuck on prompt. Next logical option in this case would be to insert Windows xp boot cd, but that wont load either. It starts to load fisrt f2 line then f6 line... and then where it should be that is loading windows core or something it is just blank. cd works on other computers. He tried other xp boot cd but that didn't work too. BIOS has been set to default, no change. He tried almost any combination of discs, cdroms, rams and cables but no change. So anybody knows about this? Linux live cd has not been tested, yet.
