thanx guys for quick responses....i appreciate it. lets say i dont want do all that stuff that i said above...how about i just do a clean install ...start fresh..how would i do that. on my pc's bios i can disable the hdd and let the dvd rom be the only boot sequence available which will force the pc to start reading from the cd ,which will then start the process of a clean install. his pc's bios doesnt have that option...it just has on how u want the boot sequence to be arranged....u can't disable drives or anyting.. that kinda sux cause if it did that could make my job alot easier. the only thing i can think of is to unplugg the eide cable which will force the pc to use the cd rom as the main source. but if i do that, then there will be no data being stored when it start to do a clean install....i guess my last and final choice would be to take it to a computer shop or somthing like that.

You shouldnt have to disable the HDD in the bios if you can arrange the boot sequence to boot the CD rom first, and I dont think you would want to disable the HDD in the bios cuz wouldnt that halt you from installing to the HDD once it boots from the CD?

just to avoid more major headaches....he decided to just take it where he got it from. they didnt ask no questions as to what happened and all that junk..they just took back in their repair department and they fixed it in about an hour. they restored to the way it was. i learned my lesson.....dont try to fix other peoples machines....and also if it isnt broken...dont fix it.
