Hi

Recently my computer started to have problems and everything pointed towards the hard drive being at fault.
I ran the manufacturers diagnostics and it found multiple errors.

I replaced the hard drive with a working drive and at first it worked fine but when i ran windows update and had to reboot it just froze on the memory test screen.

Now when i turn it on it just freezes on the memory test.

The original drive will get as far as the windows xp title page and then it reboots.

Any ideas?
