Namag Posted February 15, 2005 Posted February 15, 2005 Hallo mates, Last weekend I was booting my PC when a empty bottle fell on my CPU. The system continued on booting, but then I got the message: "BOOT FAILURE... BLA BLA BLA". I pushed the reset button, and then I noticed that the HD wasn´t even recognized by the motherboard and the same message could be read on the monitor... The next day I tried to boot a hundred times, and then the PC finally booted... Scandisk did not find any problems with the disk, and I worked for more than an hour... I moved to the kitchen to eat something and when I came back to my bedroom, the system booted himself and I got the message "BOOT FAILURE... BLA BLA BLA" again... Now, everytime I try to boot, the disk goes on making a sound like "clilck, clilck, click", (as if it was searching for the boot sector) and I defnatelly cannot boot! Could anyone help me? PS.: I apollogize for my bad English! Quote
