    Winblows XP help plz...

    Hey,

    I installed Windows Xp Pro on my second hard drive.
    First I formatted it in Win 98 and then installed it clean.

    So now I have Windows 98 on drive C: and Windows Xp Pro on drive D:.

    There is a problem

    I can't get XP to start.
    It works in safe mode but will not go into regular
    I installed the newest drivers for my vid card in Xp and still nothing...

    Plz help,

    P/S
    Drive C and D are two different hard drives not just different partitions.

                  you may need to upgrade your hard disk firmware. check the hard disk vendor site.
