I need help....ive got an IMB Mobo, new DVD drive, maxtor 300 GB HD, nvida 5700 card, intel pent4.... my problem is startup, i get an IMB screen and BIOS.
I HAD dvd sat as ATA pri and my HD as sec. at that time the HD was only half working (testing it worked but i couldnt detect it) and when i put the HD on pri and the DVD on sec, nothing works?
Just so i have this right, i have to use the disk to install my HD then i can install XP, Right?
Ive got a completely upgraded comp but ive never started from nothing so where do i start?
Everything is put together correctly i think, ive checked it 4 times
