Upon boot up, I was getting a message that my hard drive failure was imminent. After replacing the hard drive, I don't know how to get the system to boot up. I have 3 recovery discs. Disc 1 appears to be loading files, but just seems to cycle through endlessly. I don't get a prompt to insert disc 2. If I try that, I get a message that it cannot find the bootmgr. Please help if you can. thanks
