My computer is down again :meh: I went to test an old hard drive in my computer and the computer booted up once fine, but never recognized the drive. So I restated the computer and I got the error “DISK BOOT FAILURE, INSERT SYSTEM DISK AND PRESS ENTER.” So I put the new drive back in and reset the bios and it made it through the bootup process and then shut down before starting windows. Now ever time I start the computer it either starts up for a sec and then shuts down and beeps a ton or freezes during the bootup process. It also keeps resetting the cmos setting to default and when I change them and goto save and exit, the computer automatically shuts down and beeps again.
The computer was working fine before I swapped the drive into it, so I don’t know what I managed to screw up when I tinkered with it. Any ideas?
P.S. I’m thinking about building a new computer since this one is 4 years old, but only have about $500-800 to spend. I already have 2 sata dvd drives, so I don’t need those. Basically everything else so I’m open to ideas on this too…
Any help or advice is greatly appreciated. TIA.
