Disk boot failure, insert system disk and press enter

[Blblr]

Hello everyone, i have a problem with hard drive. I tried to add 1TB HDD from my old pc to new one as a second hard drive, ive connected everything and tried to boot my pc. I got this message "DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER". I checked in bios and it didn't find my hard drive, then i unpluged all my hard drives and put old hdd from my old pc with windows 7 and it worked, but of course i got bsod. Now even my first hard drive doesn't work i get the same message. Can anyone help me ?

Have you switched the jumper settings on the old one to slave?

Be sure that old drive is second in the boot chain. Take a look at bios settings. Physically connect as second in the chain.

@karlsnooks thanks for reply, but i already did that and in bios it shows only my old Hard drive, the new one isn't there
@Love Windows 7 thanks for reply, but i don't know how to do that =\

Perhaps the words old and new are confusing me.

At one time you had a drive in the computer and all was ok.
Later you added a second drive and now nothing works.

If that is true, then remove the second drive.
Does the system function correctly now?

@karlsnooks yes, thats true, but no, it still doesn't work =[

@theog thanks, i understand now, but i don't have that cable thing to connect to slave

 

[karlsnooks]

Set jumper correctly to be master. Connect to correct cable/cable connector.

What type of DVD/CD drive are you using PATA or SATA?

Great. Glad to have been of assistance.

One drive will need tobe set to Master, one to Slave.

PATA and SATA are the connectors in the back that run to your motherboard. Here is the visual difference between the two, for future reference. The left image is PATA, or IDE as it is referred to as well, and the right image is SATA. PATA stands for Parallel ATA (Advanced Technology Attachment), SATA for Serial ATA.

Its sata then
