After all, I've just re-installed Win 2000 onto the same drive that my old Win 2000 install was on, and all my files were still on it. Aside from the pain of renaming/moving NTFS files from the outside (only BartPE can do that) the reinstall went very well. No files lost, no data corrupted ... Simply booting a Windows install CD won't touch the hard drive unless you physically request to do something to the hard drive. That said, I would disconnect the drive before running tests, to be sure that the machine first boots OK without it. Then try with it. Elimination. I guess it makes no odds and leaving it connected saves messing with jumpers, unless you're all on cable select now. [/qb][/QUOTE]Are we all on the same page? I thought he had one HD for this machine with XP installed on it plus files he wants. He installed XP while this HD was in a different machine and now he put it in his new machine and XP will not boot. Does he have two HD's in this machine?? [/QB][/QUOTE]
