Hi folks... another problem from me... i started repairing my old computer... it started up fine (with no o/s however), i put my windows xp pro sp1 disk in (the one that came with it i mite add)... i did the first half of the 'install' - i.e. the formaing and copying of files... then i restart the computer and tell it to boot from the hard drive, however it comes up with 'operating system not found'. i have done this with 2 hard drives, both trying to install windows xp onto them 2 times (wiping current partition each time)... any help as to why the computer doesnt reconise it would be appriciated...
