Hi,

You may have to start from scratch and start proving that the problem is either in the 'new' HDD or the motherboard.

Can you boot to the Win install cd-rom when it is in the CD drive, with the HDD not connected to the motherboard?

If not go into BIOS and see if the cd-rom is listed in the 'drives' list.

If not, shut down the PC and swap the CD-ROM sata connection over to another sata port on the motherboard. (not the one where you has the HDD connected to before)

Start PC and go into BIOS and see if the CD-ROM drive is now detected.

If not the BIOS may be corrupted. Try using the BIOS options to reset the BIOS to default settings and start again.

If it is , perhaps the first SATA controller (it controls the port) may be faulty. Try to boot using the Win install disc.]

If you can boot into Windows, shutdown the PC and connect the HDD to the SATA port next to the cd-rom drive port.

Start PC and see if you can get into BIOS.

If not your 'new' HDD may either be faulty or has perhaps the wrong 'removable link settings' (if there are any available) in place

If you can get into BIOS check that both the cd-rom and the HDD are listed.

Try again to boot from cdrom drive

Hi, Sounds like your 'new HDD' (is that the one that you are installing?) is stopping the POST. Is it a SSD or HDD? If it is a HDD can you here it spin up when the PC powers up? Have you tried swapping the CD and HDD sata connections or disconnecting the CD sata connection and leaving only the HDD connected to see if you can get into BIOS?

If it is the old HDD that you are trying to put back in, it is probably causing the POST failure. Disconnect just the power cable to it and see if you can access the CD drive or the BIOS. If you can and from what you've said you probably will be able to the HDD has definitely failed. Best wait for the new one and start from scratch.

Check to see if the BIOS has a TPM if so then it needs to be disabled so that the PC will go into regular POST. TPM locks all regular Start-up and makes the PC boot from the HDD only.
