ok im running
amd 4400 64 x2
asus a8n deluxe( i think)
3 gig ram ddr 400, (2- 1 gig sticks, 2- 512 sticks)
nvidia 6600 512mb ram
400 watt power supply
300 gig sata
120 ide
OS= windows xp sp2
ok my problem is this, it sounds like my sata HD is trying to spin up but starts a spin up and then clicks and starts a spin up and clicks and starts a spin up and clicks, the longs i think it has done this is maybe 10 minutes then the system reboots. i removed my side panel once when it was making the noise of the click, as to determine location in the case for better understanding, and i felt the hard drive and it feels relatively warm is this normal or should i try getting new hd? or are there somethings that i can use to help my troubleshoot this better?
