Thanks for the reply i checked all the jumpers over and also elimnated the psu, good news in the end i put the drive in a caddy and found it had a partition on it I deleted it and now it works!

Ive just purchased a hitachi desktar t7k500 250gb ata133 8mb HDD to fit into a spare system I have laying around, no matter how i attach the drive the system refuses to boot past the verify dmi pool data part of the boot proccess.

Any ideas??

Motherboard is a NF7 abit using a xp2800 and 512mb ram in slot 0 and a fx5200.

Harddrive works fine in external caddy also ive tried the jumpers on the drive in all configurations changed the ide/power cable and used the primary and seconday connectors.

Maybe im missing something but i think the drive is faulty?

thanks for any info
