Ok, this is my problem.

When i plugg in my hardrive (which is a Maxtor 300g) i dont seem to get passed the Windows loading screen.
When i get past the loading screen, all i get is a black window.
When i unplugg its all ok again.

i have had my comp on warranty service for the motherboard and they replaced it, now i dont know why the Hdd is messing up, it worked fine before the incident, if anyone got some knowledge or tip about what to do i would be realy greatfull.

Have you installed service pack 2 yet?

if it's not your primary hdd you have to set the jumpers on the maxtor to slave

No its not my primary hardrive, and its a a sata hardrive too.. so i dont know if a would set the jumper anyway to satisfy that need..

Do what Nait suggested it solves most of the SATA problems.

Is your motherboard set to read the two Sata's sperate and in the right order?
