    I have a one 160GB sata hd where is WinXP. It works fine. Now when I try to install beside this hd a new hd I get this problem:

    When I start pc, it find new hd but then it says:

    PXE-E61: Media Test failure, check cable.
    PXE-M0F: Exiting PXE ROM

    DISK BOOT FAILURE
    INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER.

    I have right sata cable. Just same which is fixed on older hd.
    I also tried to put disk which have sata drivers (the disk is same which I used when I installed older hd) but it just says that disk is wrong????
