nVidia Boot Agent Hang Up

After reconfiguring the hard drives on my computer and installing a new motherboard (nVidia nForce 730i/GeForce 9300) and booting up into Windows XP, the nVidia Boot Agent kicked in during the boot up process, showing its MAC ID and searching for a DHCP. After pushing ESC to exit, it gives an error of Insert Disk..... and then restarts itself looking for a DHCP in an endless loop.

Solution: Go into BIOS and reconfigure the Startup Device. Put the Start Up Hard Drive as # 1 in the boot order.
