Hey guys,

I seem to be having a problem with my PC. Every time I turn it on, it goes past the BIOS screens and freezes,

Any idea what could be wrong with it ? :)

Really need your help, please !:D
 
UPDATE:

Tried to instert the Windows Disc + set the boot priority to CD-Rom.

Screens saying "Press any button to boot from disk" and then "Set up is checking your computers configuration" come up and then the screen goes blank...

Please help :)

Yeah, you can go into BIOS and everything etc

CPU Temperature : 33 - 35 degrees celsius / 93 degrees Farenheit
 
I'm not sure how to check the GPU's temperature, it doesn't seem to be showing in BIOS.

I do have a built-in graphics card in my mobo; as well as a Nvidia Graphics card; shall I take the Nvidia one out and see if it works on the Intergrated one ?
 
OK, I've made a breakthrough discovery:

When I disconnected my Hard Drive, and booted from disc it went onto the Windows Installation screen just fine - but then said there's no Hard Drive connected.

So this obviously means it's something wrong with the Hard Drive - any ideas what though ?:)
 
Motherboard :

Asus Vintage V3-M2V890 Barebones System - AMD64 (Socket AM2)

Hard Drive:

Samsung HD501LJ

Erm, I don't think it's any of the cables. Because it was working fine one day, and it just stopped all of a sudden; without me opening it up or anything.
 
Just went into BIOS, and it's down as the Furth IDE Master, and the First One is empty - maybe it's to do with that.... ?:confused:
 
Would it be displayed in BIOS if it was dead though ?

At the moment it's down as Fourth IDE Master, maybe I need to change it to Primary IDE Master...?
