i dont know if this is the right spot but I hope it is.

So here it goes.

i have about 3 computers. one of them the power supply went out and i was to lazy to replace it and it was my main computer. So i took the hard drive out and tryed putting it another computer. The new computer recognizes the new hard drive in the configure screen, but windows wont start. It stays at a black screen with a little white flashing command prompt like line. Im not to smart with computers.

Please help out.

The recent hard drive change might be a bit too much for Windows if the machines differ alot.

Try booting from a windows disk and repairing your current installation, although, before doing that, double check all jumper and cable settings as the HDD should actually boot up.
