Nothing boots completely??? Comeon...

I have Win 7 32 bit professional installed on an SSD. Win 7 gets to the logo then stops (for hours). I have Norton Ghost and have backup images, i put in the recovery disk and it doesnt boot completely. I tried to use the Win 7 install disk to do a repair and it also hangs in the boot process.

Nothing boots! What the heck is going on? I was able to do a memory test. It was successful.

Right now i am booting CentOS (linux) from a live CD to try and see if that boots.

Any ideas? The machine ran perfectly until this happened. I havent installed new programs recently either. I initially thought it was the SSD but since the machine wont boot from a DVD i dont know.


Help!

The linux boot hung up too.

The win 7 install disk got to the screen to allow a rescue or a mem test. I was able to run the test but when i tried to rescue it hung up before doing anything. I dont think its my dvd drive as it played fine yesterday.

What i dont understand is why the ghost disk doesnt even boot.

Is there any test i can do to be sure? I dont have a board to replace it with...

I was just able to boot a linux distro from a cd.

One of the data hard drives had failed. After disconnectin it, the machine booted up from the boot drive just fine...
