Did you change the settings in the bios so it can boot from the CD rom drive ?Ok i Jus did that and it started the Windows XP installation. Everything loaded Correctly and everything, then it tells me that there is no Hard drive Connected to the Computer. So i guess the Hard drive is obviously no good. So i guess i dont need the Floppy Drive anymore. Now i have to get a Hard drive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken_cinder Posted February 6, 2007 Share Posted February 6, 2007 Before you simply jump to that conclusion, check the cables and the jumper is set to the right position. Also make sure it's getting power, make sure the molex connector is firmly in place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
