Hello,
My computer will periodically fail to boot with three drives connected, unhook D & E and Win Xp will boot
 

Hello and welcome to Tom's Hardware Forums.

One of those drives has a programme that has code which looks like an ISO and is confusing the system into not kowing where the boot manager is sitting. It's best to keep D: and E: out of the picture at boottime.
