Ok, so originally I had a gigabyte mobo, and a WD HD. with my 3000+ and samsung memory etc..etc..
After working on overclocking, and sometimes pushing it too far, the system starts to do this wierd thing where it boots into windows fine, but I am unable to enter my computer. If i click on my computer, it brings me to the window, but it only has the searchlight cascading over the folder.... It takes 4ish minutes to search and finally let me access my HD's or opticals from my documents, otherwise i could boot up and start running, say BF2 right away if the cd is in the drive.
Now, I bought a new mobo, ram, CPU and harddirve, then set it up and was overclocking, all I did was add a safe amount of voltage to my cpu, ram, and chipset, as well as bump my PCI express freq to 106mhz. Then when i booted up, its having its same fit as described above, now i had both my old and my new HD (new hd as primary) so i could retrieve the stuff stored on the old drive... and now... same old problem..
Could it be my copy of windows is corrupted somehow... or... is it because i have amodded windows installation or something? I dont know, any help/ suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
