Hmmm got me stuffed.

If you get really stuck, I can have a look at it for you. No guarentees but im cheaper than your local shop. (ie free)
Just getting it to me is the challange.
I couldnt work in a help desk, cause i need to see the problem. No visuals make it damn hard.

DatsAndy, where art thou?

No expert here but have you tried altering the boot preferences from the BIOS?
Could also be a power supply issue with the bigger HDD?

Datsandy, get in here!

Got a Acer SA90 Desktop with a 500gb Sata drive running XP

Brought a new Samsung hd204ui 2tb drive and wacked it in place of the old 500 gb drive. Installede XP, but cant get it to boot after the initial installation.

Spoke to a few people and decided to install Win 7 as XP has limited Sata drivers. Win 7 installs but will not boot from HDD to continuie the setup. Same problem that I had when installing XP. You can look at the HDD and all the Win 7 files are there, it just wont boot from HDD

Any ideas
