Hey Everyone,
So I have the darndest issue, I'm helping a long distance friend install a new PSU into their PC so that they can use a new video card (old PSU was only a 350). So the install of the PSU and new video card goes fine, we go to boot up the PC and we get the following "DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER". Now the weird part is the bios sees the hard drive just fine, its set to boot to the hard drive 1st, there's no floppy drive in the system. I even had him remove the CD-ROM to make sure nothing was going on with that. It’s a single drive, detected but not booting to it, tried a bios reset. I just don’t understand, it was fine before, windows xp was up and running just fine. From what my friend tells me, the hard drive wasn’t smacked around or anything like that when he installed the PSU. Anyone ever see anything like this before? The drive is SATA, and the system is the following:

With this motherboard:

Later today I'm going to have him boot to winPE and see if the drive is readable, but any and all input is much welcomed, I covered just about everybase I can think of with this thing, thank you.
