I just built my first PC. About 15 minutes ago I switched it on for the first time... went into the BIOS settings and selected my 'CDROM' device as the boot device and restarted. It loaded up my windows xp installation CD as normal and like I feared, did not detect my SATA hard drive. So it quit the setup and said it was restarting.
Since then, when I restart the system just emits a loud beep and nothing happens. I have no idea why and I haven't changed any of the connections that worked on the first successful boot.
Can anyone help me out here? I have no idea why this would be happening.
