Im trying to make a fresh XP installation onto a SATA disk.
When i put in the XP CD, everything works out fine. The install program
recognizes my HD and copies the necessary files onto the HD (apr. 700 mb)
Then i have to reboot. this is where the trouble starts. rebooting result in
going back to the XP install menu giving me the option to start copying
files all over again.
It appears that the BIOS doesnt try to boot from my HD. Having no experience
what so ever with SATA, (only IDE) i dont have a clue on what to do now. can
anybody help me?
thx !
