Booting Problem
Hello,
I'am new to these forums so please forgive me for any mistakes here. Today I decided to put the HDD that was in my custom computer into my girlfriends older gateway because I have tons of games on my HDD that hers doesnt have.
So I remove hers and put mine in, and I get a green screen with a ton of black pokadots on the monitor. I dont want to mess anything up so I shut it down, get my HDD outta there, and put hers back in. Now the problem is that her HDD wont boot because it says "The file is probably corrupted, checksums dont match" So I figure no problem I'll just reinstall windows or somthing or boot from a windows 7 disc and have better luck. So I do that, and now SOMTIMES it will try to boot from the CD but it will always get stuck somwhere randomly on the loading bar after about 4 seconds and her computer constantly beeps during this. So the problem is I cant boot from her win 7 CD or her HDD. The system is on 64 bit. Please help, I feel terrible for this since she wasnt even here when it happened, I would have just used my computer but the tower is at a friends house, I just had the HDD from it and didnt think it would be a big deal.
