Even after repairing the master boot record and reinstalling i get the error. Error Loading Operating System. Im zeroing the hard drive now and im gonna try again but what should i have my bios set up like. Are there any specil IDE settings i need to set.... What could cause the system to not be able to read the drive besides a bad drive?

I had a similar problem, but it wasnt saying "Error Loading Operating System" it just wasnt loading it. My problem was that UDMA was enabled in the BIOS, so try disabling that if its enabled.
