| Hello,
| This is just an informational message. There were a few messages in

| exists with the following:
| 1) Compaq computer (Deskpro EN)
| 2) Installed a hard drive with the OS already installed (in this case
| XP with NTFS).
|
| After POST (with all of the BIOS messages turned on) it hung with the
| message: 'Attempting boot from hard drive c:' . I ran the drive
| diagnostics within the BIOS and everything checked out Okay. Booted
| using NTFS Read (or something similar) and I could see the files / file
| system without a problem. The following was the resolution:
| Within the BIOS, under "Storage" and selecting the drive in question,
| the value of "Translation Mode" needed to be turned to "Off". The
| default was something other than this.
|
| Good luck.
