Hi guys, I have recentely been having troubles with my desk top.

I will be on line or playing a game or whatever then it will just do a restart sometimes it starts and other times it gives me a disk read error.

Lately though, it will just go into the screen where i can go into the bios from, (it shows the MSI Mobo, AM2 platform and gives the option to run the bios) and just freezes there i have to hit the button to do a restart.

if i let it go enough time it goes into a black screen and gives me the message: Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Media in selected boot device and press a key.

this comp is only about 9 months old and I just dont know whats goin gon with it. Any help with this is greatly appretiated.

AMD FX mobo
1G graphic card

Ill have to come back and post the rest of the stuff since i cant remember the exact name and specs atm. hope I can get the comp to start again to see heh.

Thanks

Sounds like hardrive is bad to me. At 9mos old, though, it should be under warranty.
