Hi everyone,

I have a PC that keep stalling when trying to boot it goes through BIOS and then black screen. I thought it was the HD so I am trying to install XP on the new HD but it start and said the windows setup but it stall there n the bottom it said Setup is staring windows. But nothing is happening. I change the memory and the cable that goes to the HD...
Any suggestions would be appreciated..

Thanks

When you first turn on your system...do you get a single 'beep' before it attempts to load?

Also, have you checked to see that the new HD is set for master? Are you trying to boot to the XP disk?

Try checking your Cmos battery is OK on the board...it may need replacing
