Hardware/Software Problem

[flycat]

I got a new case, CPU, and MB just like you did and I
can't get my old hard drive to load windows. I am getting
some
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)

after the (1) it has file names, there are about 20 of
those messages or so then the computer just stops with me
still there to face the multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition
(1) filled screen. I've been trying to use the recovery
console from XP start up disc's but no luck. ANyway I was
wondering if anyone figure out how to fix this problem and
if so, please let me know.
