Be sure your BIOS is accessing this disk in LBA mode.

Check if your primary disk is first in boot order (take out media from CD
and floppy if you have set them to be used first)

Check if your disk has correct MBR code. Boot from MS-DOS system floppy ver
5.0-6.22 (visit www.bootdisk.com if you have not any) and use "fdisk /mbr"
command to replace code in MBR.

You can also run fdisk without parameter to check if partition activity flag
is set and if it is set to partition you want to boot from.

luck
