I bought a new hard drive as my previous one had failed
When installing XP it seems to go on a loop - loading files, partitioning the disk and then saying this part of windows xp had been completed successfully. To continue please restart the computer (with a bar down the bottom saying that the computer will automatically restart in .. seconds)
When it restarts (and the CD is still in the drive) it goes through the same loop.
When it restarts (and the cd is not in the drive) it comes up with Operating system not found.
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Aidan
