He bought a new hard drive and put it in. The system wouldn't boot, however, it would boot when he took the cd rom drive out. I've seen this problem before and it's usually a bad drive, but the new drive is detect and receives power. They are on a separate IDE channel so I don't understand why it's doing this. Oh, also, he can't boot from his old hard drive. Either drive gives the error "disk boot failure". Could it be a bad cable or the motherboard?
Motherboard is a Biostar P4TSV. I'm thinking for some reason it can't handle all the drives and a firmware upgrade would be a good idea. Thoughts.
