Hi,
I bought this XPLio computer containing the ECS motherboard RC410L/800-M. It's an old computer that can accomodate both Sata and Pata HDDs. When I bought it, it had Windows XP installed (sata hdd) but would hang part way into booting. So I removed the hard drive and slaved it to my Windows 7 computer, which did not recognize it's presence, neither in the bios or disk managent. Then, I replaced the hard drive; but while trying to install Windows (I tried; 7, Vista, and xp) it would hang part way through the installaton, so I have not been able to install an OS on it. I have NO idea what's going on here, and would appreciate any help.
Thanks,
