Thank y'all for helping me so far. These forums are very helpful. My dad and I fiddled around with the computer untill 12 last night and determined it's not over heating, the temperature is fine, (though I don't know how well it'll work once I start to really use the computer 'cause my PSU's fan blows down onto the heatsink) it's the hard-drive that is messing up. I have my windows XP repair disk, but once I do that it'll reformat my hard-drive loosing alot of things that I don't want to loose. :S
We put a spare hard-drive that we had around the house in my computer and put windows 98 back on it to run on my computer temporarily, but we're missing the second disk of the 98 setup so I now have a halfway working windows 98 on an old hard-drive on a new computer just so I might be able to recover the old hard drive.
My old hard-drive isn't responding at all. I have it as the slave right now, but when I try to look into it with windows explorer or through dos it says that there is an error on the drive or it just won't read it at all.
Does any one know how I can recover my Hard-drive without losing all my work on it? Thank you for y'alls time.
