try to boot without something on the ide-port. see if you get an error. |
yep... unplugged the HDD : pc boots straight thru passed the 75. no probs at all. just stops cuz' there's no disk but the booting is ok... I've changed the rounded cables to some standard ones : no difference... I'm not 100% sure but everything points @ the hdd... damn, my l33t WD 1000 BB-SE 8Mb cache is gone... i'll look that bill up, cuz' it's just some months old... it was running fixed pci/agp all the way.... what could've killed it? |
previeus OC maybe ? |
damn I also have that HDD :| |
it could be that this one was made on a monday. WHAT MAKES THINGS CRASH could be a subject of a never ending story;) |
any sudden fluctuations in the electric net past few days? didn't have a short-circuit on the HD when adapting something inside your case or something? i don't presume you dropped your case or something like that ... if it's only a couple of months old you'll still have your warranty on that thingie ... daing, OC'ing/love for PC is an expensive hobby :( |
it's the wd that is dead. changed it by a maxtor 40 gb... and all is ok... damn, it was 1.fully tweaked, that's two hours of work 2.savespots in sof2, dungeon siege (third time this happens...), ... 3.loads of screenshots lost and two 3dmarkresults above my current (just a little bit, I had a 14128 and a 14164... what destroyed it... I will never know... another RMA... |

you really should tell me what you do in those two hours. I tweak my system in about 10min, i must be missing some tweaks... actually, in two hours a format/install and tweak my whole OS :D |
check if you can boot with both HD's attached, maybe you can save some data. |
idd, certainly if you had different partitions as I do, its possible to rescue some stuff (if partitiontable ain't fux0red) |
