My old seagate 7200.11 ST3500320AS 500GB disappear after 3 minutes. On booting, i can see WINxp booting but after that rebooting to show " THERE IS NO BOOT DRIVE"

What could be the problem? What is the remedy. Data NOT important.

Problem is that someone purchased a Seagate drive. This happens quite often but has an easy solution. The remedy is to throw out the Seagate and buy something other than a Seagate. Hope that helps.

The problem is different. You ask for help in a forum where those, who can help - instead of helping - play jokes on amateurs.

Very likely your drive has bad clusters and probably also weak heads.
To find out if your drive has these phisical issues, you might scan surface with MHDD tool.

Sounds like he doesn't wanna pay a Rupee for it, as data is stated as not important.
