Hi i am currently trying to fix a friends computer he has a old commputer and he wanted to hook it up to his cdrw so i installed it but it was using too many resources (really small hdd).SO i uninstalled it i had given him another computer earlier it was a little faster than his but it wouldnt hold that much memory so i put everything back on his old computer and now i cant get any picture what so ever.I have dissconnected everything so it would boot into dos and it still dosent work.Any help would be appreciated.
 
Make sure all the cables are seated good. You may have knocked something loose. Maybe the Hard Drive Cable or even the RAM may need re-seating. I had one computer that had one stick of RAM and I moved it to another slot amd the PC booted up. I put the RAM back in the original slot and it wouldn't boot. So that one slot just died.

Oh, yeah, maked sure your master/slave jumpers are set right, if you had changed them. "A little knowledge is a dangerous thing....." [morning]
