Hey guys, I never post about problems I have with my pc, as working in the industry for a number of years, i usually solve them myself, but this problem is making me scratch my head.
About a week and a half ago I purchased a brillaint WD 500GB hdd (SE16 500GB 5000AAKS), installed vista x64 on it fine no problems. I had installed some software on the OS which I did my mistake, so I formatted again and ran the F6 option as you do for the ACHI driver to be installed, and Vista x64 was installed once again.
Now everytime the pc starts it will continously loop when posting, and will do this until the pc is turned off, not even getting into the os, or even BIOS. When power is disabled for the drive, you get get into the BIOS. Could it be shorting out the system? Any help would be appreciated gents..
