Hey Everyone.
I have been trying to get this computer running for sometime.... its not my first build but deff, it is proving to be my mot difficult... although i dont see why....
So ive got a lanparty LT p35 with 4 gigs of memory, ive got an intel core http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_Core 2 duo dual core processor, and the hard drive http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hard_disk_drive .... well this is the problem...
The computer will start to boot up http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Booting . but it gets to "boot disk failure http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Failure insert new disk ..." now i know its not a bad drive.... because it does the same with all 3 that i have tried (that i know work) the bios does see the hdd. i tried an install of windows xp http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_XP (an oem 32 bit just to try it) the install starts well, but then when the compute reboots (which is normaly for the xp install) i get the boot disk error again.
anyone have an ideas? all my drives are IDE
