Hello everyone.
I did a search on these topics, with no luck.
Recently, a PC I built (running on Win XP Pro) lost a significant amount of drivers. I tried fixing that with Windows repair, which failed miserably, so I just moved the important files to the IDE H.D.D. in the computer, and reformatted the SATA H.D.D.
Problem is, the IDE is now C:, and SATA is D: *bangs head on desk* When reformatting, it did this automatically, as the IDE was plugged into the mobo still.
As most of you know, Windows looks to the C drive first. It can't find OS to boot, so it asks for the OS CD too boot from. The PC refuses to read the D: and boot from it!
I've looked online to figure out how to solve this problem so far, nothing I've tried within BIOS has worked...I need a solution, and fast. This is getting to be very troublesome.
Any advice is much appreciated.
