after the system detects drives and such it will not boot from cd. i took my hard drive out and put it in another computer and installed an os. i replaced it into my new computer and it will not boot from the hard drive either any ideas?
 
Well, unless the two computers you're using are identical, installing an OS on a different computer than the one you're using is asking for trouble.

The fact the one computer detects, but will not boot from the CD could be a couple of things.

1) Boot order is screwed up in the BIOS.
2) Optical drive is dead.
3) Power or data cable is loose/bad.

What is the boot order in your bios? Can you put the optical in another computer to check it out?



 
it boots from the cd then the had in the bios

the cd drive works fine in my other comp and detects the os cd
when i look at the postcode it is stuck at 94 on my evga 750i ftw which stands for "final init"
