Won't boot without the DVD
OK, this feels a bit stupid but I can't seem to get W7 to boot without the DVD in the drive. Without it I get NTLDR is missing etc etc. I have 2 Sata drives, one with XP on it and the other clean apart from an install of W7.
I've arranged the boot order so that it tries to boot the W7 drive first but to no avail. Is there something obvious I'm doing wrong?
When I give up and finally boot with the DVD in start up takes roughly 7 minutes. It all seems pretty strange. Once it's running all is fine, haven't had one issue or error yet.
AMD Phenom 9500
ATI Radeon 4870
4gig ram
2 HDD
Any ideas anyone?
