| 53665 | 2002-06-10 10:43:00 | I have another wee problem. I have a P300, 128mb ram, and an old 3.2gb hard drive. Anyway, just over the last week, the hard drive light has been staying on. I have changed the IDE cable, tried another drive, changed BIOS settings etc yet the light still stays on. Also when I run apps such as word and image software, the computer just freezes, any ideas? |

| 53667 | 2002-06-10 14:32:00 | Yep I has a similar problem. In my case, the CD burner had completely died. A new burner and the light returned to normal. Try temporaliry removing the IDE cable from any CD. | Guest (0) | ||
