| How 'bout a little more info. Are you trying to install WinXP, or is it already installed and the drive is now freezing (is it slaved to another drive?). Did you install some type of sofware before this problem started? ---------------------------------------------- Work is for people who don't know how to surf Gateway Performance 1800 - P4 1.8gz, 512mb RAM, ATi Radeon 8500; SB Live Value; Windows XP Professional, Photoshop CS2, Nikon D2Hs and D100 |

| [QUOTE]Originally Posted by w800: sry m8 winxp is already installed. its another drive all i did was turn it on it just freezes [/QUOTE] First, make sure that the master/slave settings are correct (i've done this before - have both set @sslaves, or vice-versa). If it still freezes, return the drive and get different one (maybe even another brand - a number of people have had problems with Maxtor drives) ---------------------------------------------- Work is for people who don't know how to surf Gateway Performance 1800 - P4 1.8gz, 512mb RAM, ATi Radeon 8500; SB Live Value; Windows XP Professional, Photoshop CS2, Nikon D2Hs and D100 |

| Each drive has a jumper where you set it to be master, slave or cable select. Your main drive should be set as master, and your new drive @sslave. ---------------------------------------------- Work is for people who don't know how to surf Gateway Performance 1800 - P4 1.8gz, 512mb RAM, ATi Radeon 8500; SB Live Value; Windows XP Professional, Photoshop CS2, Nikon D2Hs and D100 |
