Hi, recently I have had a problem with my Maxtor 80 GB Drive in a new Dell XPS Running Windows XP. I can't access my computer. When I tired to boot my computer it said "No boot device Push F1 to Reboot Or F2 for System Utilities" or something along those lines. So I went into BIOS and made sure all the settings were right (like HD was set as boot and I went to devices and the HD was reconized. So I tried Boot up discs and finally tried to reinstall XP on it. When I started Windows XP setup it took forever to load up which is unlike it, and when I finally got to the setup menu it said R for Recovery Utility, Enter to Reinstall Windows on Selected Partition..., C to create Partition, or D to Delete Partition or something like that. So I hit enter and I get a Blue Screen error saying The system has shutdown windows to prevent damage to your system... so i'm like WTH? The harddrive was detected but not accessable. So I tried to Delete Partition and I get same error. I really don't know what to do..., I don't have the harddrive drivers disc.. and I am not too bright when it comes to fixing this stuff .
