thanks for all your help u guys. i have managed to get the pc running back to about 80% from nothing atall.
Q. if i was to purge the master boot record <fdisk/mbr> would this get rid of all bugs on hard drive??
or would i be better just to replace hard drive.
Q. what is an ATA controller and how do u fix a bad one.
here is a summery of my problems...
CAN ANYONE HELP ME . my pc has been acting very strange, well i think its the hard drive. it started off when i would try to enter C drive it would be deleyed or crash back to desk top<exe explore message>, or some times when u switch on it would make a wineing noise. switch off and then on and it would go stright to the bios and ask me to set/reset the proccessor speed, this has happened since we built the pc 1 year, so a month ago changed to a 2.2 AMD from 1.8, formatted H.D for the 100rd time and started again, but same problem!!! since this time, the pc has deteretated to the point where you cant run any applecations <games>statred off when playing FIFA2003 would play fine untill subtute would try to come on and it would take ages!!!!! and crash or playing VIETCONG it would crash a complete lock-up would have to hit the restart button for no reason!!

No the mbr command only fixes the Master Boot Record where the booting files are placed... you probably need to do a low level format (which will delete all data) or a scandisk to solve disk errors.
2. It is another word for IDE controller which is located inside the southbridge... you can't change it but you can add another one to your system.

What PSU are you using anyway? And what are your temps?
