Alright, I know this is an easy one and I've remedied the situation before by unplugging all HDDs except the one I was installing on.
So I've got my 150GB raptor with two partitions, and 2x320 Seagates, all SATA.
Formatted and partitioned the raptor then installed Vista, when I rebooted and took the DVD out of the drive I get the DISK BOOT FAILURE crap.
However if the DVD's in the drive and it's set to boot from CD rom in the bios, Vista starts up fine. Yes the BIOS sees all the HDDs just fine.
I'm sure this is just a problem with Windows not seeing something correctly but I'd like to know how to fix it in a civilized manor without reinstalling with all my drives unplugged.
Nothing is broken, all these drives work perfectly, what can I do?
