XP Home recovery

Greetings all, I have a long question so thanks in advance for any help. A friend plugged his iPhone into his USB port on his ancient Presaro SR1110NX to update the iOS and got "USB port exceeded power limit". His USB mouse stopped working so he reset the computer. It booted up then...

Will an SATA III SSD work fine in a SATA II computer?

I am thinking of shoe-horning a SATA III drive into a SATA I computer (Toshiba A215-S4747) just to squeeze another year of use out of it. Then when that's up, I can re-purpose it into another laptop, or make it my boot disk on a desktop machine. It should be backwards compatible right? TIA.

I did try to remove all drives except for my two IDE ones, and the only card that is in there is the video card. I had used a DOS boot bisk prepped by Windows XP. When I rebooted from the flash, there were several beeps and it went into 'default' mode so I had to reset my multplier, etc...

The 2TB SATA drive is no longer connected, I had it connected to turn off the Intellipark feature for my Tivo upgrade. The bite was to even get my computer to recognize it, I had to flash to the newest BIOS.

A7N8X-Deluxe won't boot up!

I flashed the BIOS on my A7N8X-Deluxe 2.0 to 1.008 to try and use a 2TB WD drive. It worked for a little while, but was flaky on access to the SATA drives. I was going to update the driver for my SiI 3112 chip to a new driver but before I was able to it hung up in Windows. I forced a reset...
