I baught a couple of components a while ago, and installed it in my little brother's pc. (which i stole) Everything was running fine, exept that the FDD isn't reconized anymore. It IS installed in the BIOS, but it just won't appear in windows and at starting up the LED lights up all the time, and it won't go off. No start-up floppies work in it, since it doesn't read them at all!

I'd say it's not properly connected.

like always, im trying to get my cool 730.6 MB HDD installed on a pc. now, I GOT A PC WHICH CAN HANDLE IT OMFG.
in the BIOS it can be easily reconized like it should, and the pc is starting up too. The problem now is, while starting up it gives the failure: "NO OPERATING SYSTEM FOUND. PLEASE INSERT AN OTHER DISK." since the floppy disk isn't reconized, i can't do anything while im sure there is an operating system installe on the drive.

Are you sure you're booting from it... If the BIOS doesn't support the HDD, you'll undoubtedly get some strange results.

now, i tried to install the old HDD as a second drive, but now the whole pc won't startup at all! it only lights his leds, and the monitor gets no signal. Can this happen becouse there is a heavy-powered burner installed so the hdd's doesn't get enough power?

A "Heavy powered burner"?  :-?

1.Did you steal the PC or the components.
Perhaps you have the FDD cable
plugged in wrong.

2.See response( 1.)

3.Hard drives don't use that much power.

Perhaps he could steal a book on DIY-computer building as well while he's at it.  ;)

the FDD cable is pullged in like it should, and i can see it in the BIOS too. but it just won't work!

If the light stays on constantly and it does not work then it is not correctly connected. Is the cable reversed on the mobo?
