PHFF-29

O.K., I tried changing the boot sequence set up under the bios, but for some reason, the CD will not read. My friend has offered me to borrow his XP PRO CD to do it, but I am not sure if this might produce a problem with what I want to do. I mean, if I borrow his, can I still use my CD key if it asks, or will I need his? And if I do use it, will it conflict with my HD seeing as I had initially installed the OS with my CD?? OH MY GOD, PLEASE HELP ME! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! HAHA! I just don't want to lose any of my stuff. Ecspecially when it is also a perfectly good 40gb HD. I mean, this shouldn't be this hard, should it?

o.k. I did try to start it up with my XP CD in the CD Rom and the HD attached to this system, but it does not go into the start up mode of the CD. It goes right into trying to boot up, then I get the blue screen flash, then it goes right into restart mode again. I did try to switch the start up sequence to boot from the CD, but unless I am doing it diiferent, it also isn't doing it. How would make it so I can get to the start up mode of the CD from this point?

Hi, I need help getting my HD to run in a new system that I have gotten. It is a better/faster system, but the 40gb HD I have has allot of personal stuff on it. I am running XP PRO.. I tried to run it in my new system and I keep getting the quick flash of the blue screen of death right after I see the XP logo, then it goes right into reboot. Can someone help me with getting the HD to run in the new system. Thanks ahead of time. Also, just for the record, I did try putting it on the system as a secondary slave HD, using the original HD it came with (which is only 10gb by the way)and it does see it and I can go into it to see all of my stuff. I would just like to be able to run my HD in this new system without having to piggy back my old HD with this new one. Thanks again for any assistance anyone can give me.
