Ok so I've had my PC a while and had it OC'd to 4.6ghz, i5 build. Recently one of my hard drives (storage drive) failed and I disabled it in my device manager and have not removed it. Now my PC has stopped booting, it will do the bios screens then get to the screen pre-windows and just stop on that dos screen and have that flashing _ at the top left of the screen and then after a while it will go into the windows failed to launch, start up repair and not be able to fix it.
I'm wondering, could this be caused by the failed HDD still being in the PC, could another HDD of failed, could my OC'd CPU have failed? Never had any high temps or high usage on my CPU. I thought it could also have been my RAM as it has often been at 90%+ usage recently since I've started to play SWToR, only running with 4gb ram. However I ran the memory test program that was in the windows recovery bit and it said it was fine. Any ideas would be much appreciated!
Hope you've all had a lovely Christmas!
