I have a comaq armada e500, PIII, 700Mhz, 256RAM. When i apply power it displays compaq logo for about 2 mn and then displays non systems disk or disk error, please replace ans strike any key to continue. The hard works very well when inserted in another notebook. It can boot on Floppy diskette no prob. but CD and HDD don't boot.
