| Howdy! Im having some problems with a computer I just got off of my friend, and I dont have the faintest clue on what the problem is. I can start the computer, play in the bios, ect, but only when a HDD is not hooked up. All the hardware is compatable, as all of these components have been in running order together before. Whenever I hook up the harddrive(s), it just starts, the cpu(I think) makes a few little noises, and then the computer shuts down... and this may happen a few times. I can hook up a DVD rom no problem, but not a hdd... Im baffeled. PLEASE help me, as this is to be my CSS computer until I save for a new one. hopefully within the month. Im not sure how these fourms work, so if you could add me to msn, or PM me, that would be awesome! <REMOVED> Thanks all! Last edited by evilfantasy : 03-02-2008 at 05:53 PM. |

| If you are getting beeps when you boot with the HDD fitted, these are bios codes, which tell a story.
