Hi, I have just fitted a second SATA 160 gig hard drive to my Win XP
Home PC. It was recognized and I formatted it with NTFS which went ok.
I also have a USB 160 gig HD connected. The problem is that the system
won't restart, it hangs at the XP screen (with the progress bar) and
never gets any further. If I hold down the power button to switch off,
then switch it on again it goes to the menu screen from which I select
"Start windows normally" and it boots fine. But if I try to restart it
from Shut down/restart it hangs. If I disconnect the new drive it
behaves normally.
The new disk is a Maxtor 160gig sata
My original disk is a Maxtor 160gig sata
