RID is right check in bios or cmos or even both for boot up options change 1st boot to floppy 2nd boot to cdrom 3rd boot to hard drive 4th boot to network
if you don't have this many boot up things then have the floppy first then hard drive,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Well I tried your ideas. They did not solve the problem. Even put 30 seconds to reccognize the harddrive. When you first start the computer, it will reccognize the two CD drives on the secondary ide and not the harddrive on the primary ide. The harddrive is the only item on the primary ide. When you hit the restart button and the BIOS goes thru its check, it reccognizes the harddrive and boots up XP. What can be done?

That was my answer. The jumper on the Harddrive was in the master. I put it in neutral and it booted like it did before. Thank you very much.

If this is a new system, you may take a look at the BIOS setup to see if there's an option to wait for IDE spin-up. HD detection may fail if it hasn't reached full speed when it is polled by BIOS.
