westerndigital 250gb cavier sata II se
Hey guys I am having a problem with COD4 and windows. When I start my pc everything works fine, till windows starts. Once I get to the screen where it says windows xp and the loading bar below it, it will freeze or either restart the booting process over again. Once it does this for a while I get onto windows. I'll sometimes get a error message that says "this problem might have been caused by one of your hard disks." When I turn cod4 on i'll get a error message some of the time that says fastfile for localized_common_mp appears corrupt or unreadable (code 107.). So I thought that might have been caused by a bad instal so I retried and still the same thing. Then barrowed a friends disk and still the same thing.
Now I have wrote 0's do my hardrive thinking that it could have been caused by a bad secotor of bad file alocation tables. I also did the western digital diagnotics and it came back perfect. Now i have reinstalled windows and while i was reinstalling it said file dxdiag did not install correctly press enter to retry and i did and it worked. Now I was still haveing the off again and on again problem. I thought well mabye something wrong with the cable. I replaced the cable no on and off thing so far but COD4 is still giving me that crap.
I am currently installing a 30gb western digital IDE drive to see if COD4 will work fine with it. This will tell me if the hard drive is bad. If I still get the message does anyone else have any other idea's
The windows disk i have tried 2 different copies same thing
The COD disk same thing on 2 different copies
Ram should be fine it's 2gb of what the manufactuer said to put in
The system specs are
Amd althon 64 3200xp

250gb sata and 30 gb IDE western digital drives (these are not beging used together 30gb is for testing)
Foxconn K8S755A-6EKRS
