Hey guys! I built my 2nd computer yesterday. I put my HDD in it and wait for a boot up. It gets to windows xp and then it restarts. This happens over and over and over again. Thinking that it might be a corrupt file or something, I put a different HDD in it and it boots up windows vista ultimate. (I have like 7-8 hdds) Looks like a bad driver or a corrupt file. I try the hdd with different hardware and it boots up. Hmmm, sounds like XP compatibility to me.
Windows XP Works in one computer, but not in another

You can't just plop a drive with Windows already installed on it into a different computer and have it work unless the motherboards were the same. Install XP clean on that new computer build.
