i am attempting to reinstall Win XP Pro on a machine with 2 SATA hard drives.
(Win XP has become sluggish & full of holes). I have rebooted from original
XP Pro CD. It inspect system, loads files, starts windows then asks if I want
to do reinstall or repair. Whichever I choose it tells me that setup can't
find any hard drives on my system.
i have changed over the drives (0 to 1 and vice versa on the motherboard),
turned them off and on in the BIOS. No combination has any effect.
when I take out the CD the system boots up just as normal with Win Explorer
showing both drives as ever.
What is happening?
Please help
