Moved apartment recently, when i plugged my second puter in it wouldnt let me in windows saying some hardware or software been changed then i choose i mode to start in and it just hang with a blinking - in the corner.

I tryed to install windows again but it makes an error when it starts reading the hard drive. Not sure if i should buy a new hard drive or something else is wrong.

I would guess that (and this is going to sound a bit vague) something has come loose in the move. I've spent days playing about with a PC in this situation.

I find the best way to fix it is to take it apart and put it back together. It works perfectly if you have a friend round to watch you swearing when it works first time after re-assembly.

If it reboots, I'd get worried, but as a one-off, I'd let it slide.

That is sooo true :eek7: Every d*mn time I take apart to clean the fluff out it fails to start unless I'm complaining about it infront of someone...
