hello good people, i merged 2 drives with Partition Magic to free up space for the OS but when i reboot Windows fails to start. im asked to choose how to start Windows; normal/safe mode etc. but no option starts but just loops back to the beginning again after the Windows XP welcome screen then a flash of the blue screen of death. i checked the HD on a friends laptop using an external case; it still works and the 2 drives are mergedwith all the data in tact. i was adding a HD just before this happened and had the primary HD undocked and did move the computer a little while the HD was just hanging by the cables and running. Did i kill the motherboard? what can i do? thank you for any advise. rob
