    The Hard Drive is set in the BIOS to start first. The lights on the CD and DVD are on for 5 seconds. Does this mean that the Hard Drive is starting first.

    Quite simple to check - place a bootable CD in one of the optical drives and see if that or the hard drive boots up.

    I have an XPSP2 and an XPSP3. I tried each in each Drive. I got nothing. Nothing is great. That is what I was hoping for. Thanks A bunch.
