When i start my computer the the following message appears: Primary Master Hard Disk Error. (Press F1 to Resume) The only thing i can do is choose F1 en see my BIOS but whatever i change there i come back in the message. Also the F10 (recovery) is not accessble. And the computer won't start whit the system recovery cd's.

Hi Marcel It sounds to me that your hard drives down the toilet, however there are a few things you can try. Go back into the Bios and see if it's auto detecting the drive, check the cable connections and the power supply connections. Do this and get back.
