Ok let me lay the story out for you. About 5 months ago i started noticing my computer wouldnt start up every once in a while.....it started happening with more frequency until finally it just crashed and icouldnt start it up at all. It is crashing as it tries to load windows, or more accurately freezing. I can post fine, but as soon as it gets to windows loading i hear almost a "click" then a powering down "beeewwwww" comming from the computer. I started taking things out to test what i was, with only the hard drives and video card hooked up i was fairly confident it was hard drives. I sent them away for RMA and they sent me 2 new ones, i had WD raptor 10k rpm drives before, 35gig each, and since those werent in production any more i got back to 70gig ones *wooo*. I put em in, formatted em, installed windows just like normal, silicon images raid driver, windows install ect....every thing is perfect, for about 3 days. All of a sudden same freezing happening again, every once in a while i can boot in if i go into safe mode first and then restart. Then it just quits again........i started up school so havent been tackling it in a while but id like to get it runing again, while i run low level diagnostics on it i never get the sound, only when i try to boot into windows, right at the windows splash screen. all hdd tests i have come bcak with no errors on surface, or no bad sectors or anything......
Im really at my wits end here.......ive tried a diff powersupply and ive tried using reg power instead of SATA but nothing seems to work, anyone have any ideas? pls help
