first off thanks for reponding to my earlier post about 5 volt prob.
While going thru burnin and testing I had several problems concering the IWILL KK266+ non raid board. ie the no boot problem which I seem to have fixed by resetting cmos with power cord disconnected.
However now while trying to boot up my wd 40gig hd was making a ticking noise while trying to boot to win2000. Scandisk would run slow then lock up. Now I am getting a message that windows/system/config? (not sure if that was exact file) is missing or corrupt and to try to fix file from win2000 cd.
I did have the hd connected to my promise ata100 controller card but on boot up it would say that promise bios was missing so I moved hd to ide0 on mainboard. but alas same message but the weird clicking noise has seemed to have departed.
All voltage and bios settings seem to be right on, and I was just wondering if after so many crashes that it would be best to format
and start fresh. I did not do that when I put this together last week.
Could the hd drive have suddenly f**ted out on me or could it just be the fact that with so many crashes and rebooted and hard shutdowns that this has happened. I will try tonight to fix the corrupted file but was hoping that maybe someone else has been thru this nightmare before.
thanks again and sorry for long post but i know info is everthing
