Booted the first time - but never again

#1 Post by biggielove » Fri Feb 11, 2011 9:31 am

Hello,

I booted - entered Parted Magic.

I was look to see if I could initialize two new hard disks.

I did partition them as DOS partitions in Parted Magic.

I exited Parted Magic - with SHUT DOWN.

When I rebooted - I have a '_' flashing about three lines down from the top of the screen.

Back Ground:
This is a new system that has no operating system on it.
The two drives have been set in the BIOS for RAID 0.
Windows 7 would stop during installation with a message - insert floppy-disk/USB with the CD/DVD drivers.
Strange, since the sata DVD/CD is the drive I was using to install Windows 7 in the first place.

Any help here would be greatly appreciated.

B.

Update:

Changed the boot order in the BIOS - everything is working again.
It was hanging on the RAID drives.
