I ran SuperAntiSpyware to clean up computer, did %temp% and rebooted: computer went do DOS and read: Primary Drive 0 not found, Primary Drive 1 not found. I located a fix with Google, turn on CapLocks, ScrollLocks and NumberLocks then in this order press CtrlF, CtrlE then press and hold CtrlB and this got the computer running again. Now it keeps diverting back to that DOS and I have to press F2 to get back online yet that clink a clink pause clink a clink continues all the while I wait for the computer to come back on.... Question is, is harddrive failing? or is there another fix to this problem? I've already backed up files just in case. Thanks for your time with this matter, Tim
