wellhere is what happened:
i decided to install another linux distro on my second hard drive, but it fucked up the the mbr and the boot config so i couldn't get back into windows. so i just reformatted my second harddrive, installed windows, grabbed all my important files from my first drive, reformatted the first drive and installed windows.
it was coming up wit a dual boot screen with two XP choices, whcih i guess it should. but then i set the bios to not boot from CD, but now it still brings up this:
Booting from ATAPI-CD:..... (first cd drive)
Booting from ATAPI-CD:......(second cd drive)
ERROR OMFG PLZ INSRT SYSTEM DISK KTHNX
so even though the bios is set to NOT boot from cd, it still is, and it won't boot from my hard drive (or else it just can't).
so now i'm transfering the files back onto my first harddrive, reformatting the second, not installing windows on it, just backing up the files again, and then reformatting/installing windows on my first drive...
i've done about 20 OS installs this weekend between XP, Ubuntu, and Fedora Core 2...
