The only reason I suggested Nero was because of Atapi.sys is the CD drive. Some where along the line Nero or Windows could have done something to the driver, etc, but it could be something totally different.
It could be that the file is corrupted cause of the bad sectors of the drive. At this point we really dont know. We need the check disk to complete to have any real info.
ok thanks for your help and suggestions. I'll try everything tonight. the Check Disk finished successully but I was unable to see the results because I was downstairs watching Heroes and totally forgot about it I'll run another tonight and try and get some results :]
Right, I've decided I'm just going to build a new PC. I'm fed up with my one now and it's a different BSOD eveytime now! Thanks for all your help and suggestions. Really appreciated :]
Does anyone know of any good guides on the net that show how to build a PC? It will be my first shot at it and I don't want to spend around £350 and then it not work or recognise other things! I've made my decisions on what to get:
HDD: Ok I need help with this because there's so much choice and I get confused! Could anyone recommend me a 250GB SATA 3.5 HDD for under £40 from eBuyer?
I think for the time being I won't get a graphics card and get a new HDD instead as I won't be needing a good graphics card until June. I know I've asked before but I just want to be sure, will all of these components work with each other?
hi i would suggest a bigger psu i dont think 350w will do it with a graphics card still to be fitted later better to spend the money now than have to replace it later 550w min
