Unable To Load My Os After Installing A New Hard Drive?

I have just installed a 2nd hard drive and after I formatted it my os wont load? I can see the partion and all the files but once my system passes the boot stage it will ask for a driver or disc. If i install the oem vista premium x 64 os disc it just takes me to tjhe repair window any ideas please?

Re: Unable To Load My Os After Installing A New Hard Drive?

is it possible you have the disk master/slave setting backward so the system thinks the second/new drive is the FIRST (C) one.
