I have a Dell Latitude D620 that won't boot from the hard drive. 2.16 
GHz Intel Core 2 CPU, 2 GB RAM, Running Windows XP Pro SP3. I have 
reloaded the OS several times, flashed the BIOS, swapped the hard 
drive.  Windows installs ok with no errors, But when I take the CD out, 
it won't boot from the hard drive. Says no bootable device found. When I 
put in any bootable CD/DVD, it will boot from the hard drive and run ok. 
I did try FIXMBR with no success. Any ideas?
