Well the newer I7 is backup and running, clearing the rest of whats left on it, but I'm still not happy, I am not trusting it yet,and won't for a longggggg time... Straight out of the box, it took 7 attempts before it booted in to windows, I kept on getting the same Bios error message as before "Boot Device Error".

I'm gonna be keeping a very close eye on it and the queue on this one to an absolute minimum for the foreseeable future (lack of confidence in a PC is never a good thing), I'm dreading the next batch of Windows Updates, I'm not sure if it'll boot back up on the restart

I'm gonna talk to my repair guy, I'm gonna get him to order in a Mobo and keep it on reserve for me just in case so if it goes again so I can have it back up and running in hour and not a week

Morning Team

My Globe Sig is almost there, not long now

A not so good update again, my Pending for GPU is back up to 41 pages again

Newer PC was still playing up with the same problem, I'm starting to think it's the HD or Sata Cable thats playing up (HD = Seagate Barracuda, I've had problems with Seagate HD's in the past and the internet rating for these don't seem that good).

In the end I tried removing all cables from the HD, power up, powered down again, inserted the power cable, repeated the process, then attached the Sata Cable, pwered the system up, it went straight to windows and has been chugging along since with no problems.... Very Odd
