KIND OF..
1) but still doesnt boot to windows right?
2) yeah that works too on the desktops. by the way i just did that on a dell inspiron 3000 desktop that im working on it and it worked fine (windows xp). did a fresh reinstallation on it and when it finish doing some updates it didnt boot up (missing files). so i just disconneted and i left it for 1hr then plug it back and it boot up with no problem.
3) oh wow that sucks then.. custom desktop?
4) yeah thats k. doesnt matter.
i think with the experience i have with IDE hard drives it seems that you might need to get a new 1. and is it possible you can install a SATA hd instead?
