Im still working on trying to get the bugs out of this pc, and I have an old 8 gig fujitsu, that was given to me a while ago, and worked great as a second drive. I went to install it as my main drive to check it out a bit more, as I plan to install my spare OS on it for a back up. I set the jumpers up no problem, but the message I got was missing NTLDR. Now heres the wierd part, the computer boots fine from the 40 gig fireball Im now using. Im wondering if the firmware for the drive may have been buggered up by the previous owner of the drive. If thats the case, how do I get it back up and running?
