Im using a western digital 160 gb hard drive
It all started when i was gaming one day and all of a sudden my computer froze. I was forced to press the reset button as nothing else would work, and after that i got the reboot and select proper boot device msg
at first i thought that the hard drive may have died as i have had it for a while, but when i plugged it in on another computer, it worked fine. Ive tried things such as taking out the power supply and reputting it back in. reseting the thing. Play with BIOS settings. I even tried plugging in a cd rom IDE cable into my hard drive to see if it would run. None of it worked. Id normally bring it out for someone to fix, but its sunday now and i have some work i need to do, and nobody is open. IF anyone knows anything about this, please help me out. It reads my cdrom drives and floppy drive, but it doesnt read any of my hard drives (i have two that i plug in seperately) ive had the computer for years and the hard drive has never had a jumper in it so i doubt it is the problem. (i always only have 1 hd connected at a time anyway) yes.. thats all.. i think... please help me out, thanks
