My Treo 600 is my phone, my PDA, my watch, and my MP3 player. Oh yeah, I take a picture once in a while with it. Convergence is such a great thing.

You probably have your MAster Boot Record (MBR) on disk2

Let me make a guess: Was disk 2 the original disk where the OS used to be and you added disk 1 later and reinstalled windows on that disk?

Do files get embarrassed when they get unzipped?

My OS is win xp pro.
Drive 2 was my original drive where my OS use to be...the system stops at the boot screen

Check also for your BIOS settings, makes sure HD settings are on auto-detect.
