so when i am turn my pc(lets name it PC1) on it makes some noise and then when it comes to the windows loading it makes restart again and again , and when it happened there is a system repair but nothing happened :S ...
and when i am plug the HDD (from PC1 ) as a secondary HDD to another pc ( named PC2) and use his ( PC2) HDD for the boot process everything seems cool and the HDD (of PC1) shown in "my computer" ... B-U-T !!! when i am access the HDD of PC1 in PC2 there is some folder that i have full access and another folders which my access is denide :S ..
any suggestion ?

You are denied access on pc2 because windows is recognizing that you are not the correct user for those folders. You can take ownership if you sign in with an administrator account and recover data before you reinstall windows. Google it.

With the HDD in pc1, press f8 when starting up and tell windows to disable automatic restart on errors. This will get you to a blue screen where you see the error message and hopefully resolve your issue without needing to reinstall.
