[pcpcpc]

Hi
I have an Athlon 2600+ running xp with 1gig ram and a hitachi sata 80gig harddrive.
I have a new seagate 200 gig sata to add.
Once all plugged in I boot the pc & it gets to the windows logo with black background before rebooting itself!
I went into bios and tried auto detecting yet it didnt seem to make a dif.
What am I doing wrong?
Sorry for my ignorance.
Im sure its a simple procedure Im making difficult somehow.

some system information such as Motherboard and such would help.

Thanks
How do I find out what the motherboard is for you?
What else do you need?

 

[dustyjay]

well you can open the pc and read the manufacturer and model number off the motherboard or you can go D/L Everest Home and run that as it will usually give you correct info.
