Hi,
my system's down, so i reinstall windows xp, but the setup can show sreen
that no hardisk detected.
Hardisk in bios ok
view hardisk in partition magic is ok
view in dos is ok
so I don't know why
Just heard about that no hardisk detect sp1 install to the one with sp2
installed???
 
Hi,

Have you used Partition Magic to partition the Hdd?
If yes, have you created the 2 rescue disks when you installed PM?
If yes, use them to recover the OS.
If no, boot into BIOS and change the CD-rom to be the first boot device then
save and exit BIOS setup. Boot from the XP CD, delete all partitions and
perform a clean installation of XP.
Warning: all data files would be lost.
