So I have this computer and the mobo and PSU were shot. I replaced them both. Now i realized the HDD was dead so i got a new one of them to. So i get everything in and get it goin.
It takes a long time to post, but aventually gets there...after about 45 seconds. I get into Xp setup and i start to format and i got to like 88% and it just stops, not locked up but not going up. So i hit the keyboard and it goes up to 91% in like a minute. Stops again. I go to mow so 1 hour later, it's at 94%.
When i recieved the HDD in the mail from newegg i noticed that some plastic by the power connector was chipped off. Think the rest is damaged? What about the slow post? I tried removing the battery and all that jazz but im not sure what to do next. Any ideas?
