[dba-Tech] Operating System not found

Lembit,
Possibly one particle on the HD was going bad and the information stored on
it was relocated after a boot-up scan by check disk? XP will do disk
checking on start-up

Or maybe the Moon's alignment with Mars was just a hair off?
;o)

ok, now dont tell me computers have no soul or life of their own or an own
will ;)

exchanged the power cables back, and it is working fine still.
so explain this:
- the PC works ok yesterday till afternoon
- then all of a sudden, it wont start (Operating system not found), checked
it with 3 different HDs that all work.
on all of these Acronis can see the disk and the directories on it.
this morning again the same.
- disconnect 1 pair of HDs and it works
- exchange power connections and reconnect the HDs - still works
- reexchange power connections, so its the same wiring and everything as
yesterday afternoon and this morning, and the system still works fine.
nothing is different from yesterday when it didnt work.

and now, how do I find the problem????
