the second post made a good point. check the hdd in the bios to see if the computer recognizes it. usually you press delete or F1 to go into the bios when the computer is posting.
also the master boot record couldve got messed up. you can fix the master boot record by booting up with the windows xp cd. you will need to go into the bios and change the first boot device to cdrom, save settings, and boot up with the windows xp cd.
on the main console, choose reapir and the computer should take you to a black command prompt screen. when it ask to type in an admin password, just simply hit enter if you dont have one and it should skip it.
when you get to the C: type in "fixmbr" without the "". it should only take a few sec and then restart the computer and boot into windows.
