Hi Everyone,
Just finished a build. Fired it up. Put new xp sp2 oem in , partitioned hdd, loaded up no problems. shut down to remove wireless card so i could run llinksys cd and restarted. Now all i have is the hard drive cant be detected no windows. Ive heard about the driver download, but in bios, its not showing my hd (sata by the way) It says i have a hitachi hd, but bios wont seem to recoginize it.
Cant figure why xp would load once and then not. Even bought a usb floppy drive if i need it..Please help!!

amd x2 7850
hitachi hdp725050gla360 500 gig hd

seeing as you removed a card, check your cables, something may have gotten loose.
