Trying to fix my friends computer thought I would be done in an hour or so but I ran into a retarded problem when trying to boot from the windows cd. Here is some information I know off the top of my head. If you have any input please let me know, I'm trying to get this done before tonight since its Friday ugh.
I have my BIOS settings set to
SATA CDROM - 1
HD DRIVE - 2
LSC120 - 3
BOOT OTHER - Disabled
Computer had Vista installed I am trying to install either XP or Vista at this moment neither are booting from disc.
Computer will start up and do a "Memory Testing : "
After this it will show 2 other screens they go by fast.
The 3rd screen is the option to boot with
Safe mode
safe mode with networking
safe mode with command prompt
last known good configuration (advanced)
start windows normally
I have chose each one of these options, they all encounter an error and the computer restarts.
The computer has been running with Vista for a year atleast and started to gain spam and such and needed a restore for better speed.
The computer is built with random parts I don't see anything inside the case that shows any mistakes.
Here are two videos I made on the start up's:
