HEllo. My friend's computer seem to have some booting problems. Computer is using Win2k and it seems that when the computer is not properly shut down (ie. pressing the reset button), the computer fails to boot up at all.

I checked the HD and it seems that the HD doesn't boot up. CPU fan and GPU fans are all running properly and monitor screen is blank.

This problem has occured numerous times already and what my friend did was just to power everything off, unplug everything and left it for a day or two and it's back to normal again after that. I seriously think there's something wrong somewhere. Can anyone help me please. THanx a bunch!

THanx Joshua but I checked the power supply to the HD, I even used different cables ie. the ones that powers the CD-ROM drive and still nothing. It's working now after being left for a day. Might check the whole system again. I suspect something with the BIOS. Need more help here peepz!
