pc problem.

Now reconnect the 2 cables going to the hard drive and try booting up and see what happens.
 
I already did.
When I tried booting up without the HDD, the BIOS screen showed up, and was gone, and nothing more.

When I reconnected the HDD to the MoBo, I got through.

Do you mean I should be able to use the computer properly even without the HDD?
 
I just wanted to make sure the hard drive wasn't causing the machine to freeze. I have to leave for work now, but will check in tonight when I get home.
 
If its not freezing up now, then you are good to go. Except you need to get a valid windows operating system.
 
Yeah. My brother turned the PC on, and reported no problems. I'm not sure how long this will last though. Last time, my freezing problems appeared to stop, it lasted 10 or so days. Then started freezing again. I'll try to persuade my parents into the original one. Thanks for everything Johnb. :)
 
Johnb! The computer says my taskkill version is not compatible with the computer. My system is 32-bit. Can you help me with this?
 
You will need to install a valid windows operating system, thats your best solution right now.
