Like I said I have XP on a 40GB Barracuda IV (Primary Master) and RHL 8.0 on a Medalist 4.3GB (Sec master).

And XP's progress bar wont stop going round and round..

As soon as I remove the data cable on Linux hdd(while its on. I *know* thats not smart), XP goes right ahead...
But Linux boots fine..

This means if I have to boot into windows, i have to remove the cable..

This has not happened before.. I've had linux on another hdd

Any ideas
