Disk Drives Gone??

No I haven't, but our idea is to pull out all the plugs and rebut that way.

You have to spell it 'rebut...'

Because if we just restart, it has no effect.

I ran CHKDSK, and nothing...

This is why it's very important to keep a perfect image of you HDD handy at all times. The only recourse is to reformat. Kind of a bitch, but that's the way the PC crumbles.

This is one of the reasons why I have a separate partition for just Windows (even most of my programs go on another parition). I've reinstalled Windoze underneath my software several times when things have gone horribly wrong.

Try the drives on a different computer to see if they work there, maybe your IDE controller stopped working. I seem to find that the motherboards sometimes don't last as long as the drives

.

The mother board is three months old...

The drives are not dead. If they were her computer wouldn't be booting up at all.

Something funky with windows probably happened. I am not sure what you can do to fix it though, but I doubt it's a hardware issue.
