My hard drive keeps telling me this whenever I try to install windows XP home on it. I can get into the windows XP setup and then when it restarts it always tells me "Disk Read Error hit control alt and delete to restart"
How do I get my Hard drive to start working. This is a new hard drive and the same thing was happening on my old one. For those of you who don't know I had windows XP home running fine on my computer than I put SuSE linux on it. Now I want to re-install Windows XP but it won't let me. Sometimes in setup it keeps saying that The hard disk might have been damaged or formatted with the wrong system( FAT) and to consult my computers manual(which i dont have since i made mine)
Any ideas to get windows working ???
and by the way microsoft tech support has the be the worst kind there is. It's all outsourced... some indian guy who couldn't pronounce a word of english was helping me and it took 20 mins just for him to get my key number down. Then after that he told me he was gonna charge me 35 bucks for help. what bullshit
