i just bought 2 new wd3200ks's. i installed everything and it all was working well until i come home from school to find that windows wont boot. no bsod or warning or anything, just black. then the computer restarts and says that windows did not load properly and i can select safe mode and all that stuff, but it does the same thing. Only sometimes when i choose to use the most recent working settings does the windows logo just slightly appear before shutting off. The harddrive also makes some noise. Does this mean i have a bad hd?

Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Clicking typically = dead or dying. You could give WD's diagnostic tools a run just to verify the problem.
