I upgraded MOB,CPU,RAM and HDD on my PC.
here is specifications
I have upgraded my PC to
CPU INTEL Pentium D925.
RAM, 2 GB DDR2 Kingston 667
HDD, one Orignal IDE and one SATA, on SATA 3 Port on MOB.
MOB
ASRock ConRoe1333-D667 R1.0(VGA,2DDR2-667,PCI-E)
IDE is set to be Master.
CD is Slave.
both on same cable.
when go to BIOS it shows all the connected drives and new CPU and RAM but it shows 233 instead of 333. can i change 233 to 333 in Advanced option in BIOS.
I had XP on my IDE.
i am Getting to the screen where it asks for windows to run in
Normal Mode
SAfe Mod
Networking mode
if i select Normal it goes through another circle of Boot and ask the question again.
Do i need to install XP again.
For this i am thinking of removing IDE first , Installing XP on SATA and installing IDE again.
Will this be Ok or will it create some kind of problem between XP on SATA and XP on IDE
What happens to the copy of XP already on IDE will i loose it along with all the programs like MS office and Antivirus.
Or is there any other way to do it. Becasue i really need those programs.
Thanks
