daniel Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 Well i dont know if this is hardware or a software problem but here is the prob... Well sometimes when i turn on the computer and the Intel pentium screen appears and the HD starts working and the CD and DVD rom do the same... if you wait like 2 min it says plz insert a valid boot something (dont rmemeber the exact word) but also sometimes it goes into windows... And sometimes immeately or sometime after the computer freezes mouse, keyboard and screen.. and the HD and DVD rom start like to "read" sometimes it stays like that other times i get the blue screen saying it may be a software or hardware problem.. i didnt get the exact message though.. if it appears again ill post the exact message... but i really need help.. i cant use the computer.. until it is fixed.. today im gonna try to go into safe mode to see if the same happens.. if it does im gonna format..... I really neeed help to fix this... thx, daniel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
