Default [Fixed] New pc wont boot

Ok lets start with the specs.
AMD 6400+BE X2 AM2
ASUS M3a
2 gig patriot ram
250gbhd
80gbhd
10gbhd

It gets up to os selection, I have 2, one is winxp the second is also winxp but its not installed its just there.
So i chose winxp then it reboots.
The Hds came from my pc. If i connect them to this board it wont go, but with my old board it works. What could be the problem?

Hi welcome to PCHF if the hard drives are from your old PC and the hardware is new you will need to do a repair install of your windows XP to get it booting again this is why it won't work in the new PC and will in the old one because the hardware is different .

Repair install info Perform a Repair Installation
