I just got a barebones PC and would appreciate some help getting it to work with my hard drive and operating system configuration.
I put my old hard drives, dvd drives, video card, etc. in the new case. I'm running XP Pro, and when I start up the new computer with my old hard drive in it, I get a page saying Windows did not start normally and asking if I want to start in Safe Mode or use the Last Known Good Configuration. No matter which option I pick, I just get the same message over and over.
Is there anything I can do to get this to work? I know reinstalling Windows will probably do it, but that means having to reinstall most of my other software as well, which I'd prefer not to do.
Thanks
