my fd asked me to reformat his computer, but he didint wanna delete all his stuff, so i brought my hard-drive, plug it in to his computer as the secondard hard-drive. i copied all the stuff to my hard-drive which he didnt want to delete, took out my hard-drive, den reformat his computer.........when it was done, i plug my hard-drive again to his computer, put all his stuff back to his computer.....den took out n brought it home.....but when i plug it in back to my computer, turn on my computer, sometimes it showed something about reboot with a work device or reboot with the device's media cd etc with a black screen....sometimes it showed the screen says everything works but the windows didnt start sucessful, choose safe mode or normally start windows or last worked conj. etc.....i tried every one....the normally start windows n last good conj. could load to the loading windows screen (which is theres a "windwos" in the middle and theres a line under "windows" n loading one) but after loading....it reboot my computer auto. other safe modes reboots my computer after loading too, but it loaded in black screen....

No need to double post.

When you copied his files to your hard drive, did you copy over any system or program files/folders?
 
i checked the data cable and the power, they seem dun have any problem. also i checked the jumper, its on the master side.
by the way, if i shake the hard-drive using my hand up and down, will there any sound or noice comes out from the hard-drive? i just did it and it came some sound....

There shouldnt be any noises when you shake it, did it sound like a screw or something was moving around in there?

it doesnt sound like something is moving around....
it sounds like the thingy that touches the disk in the hard-drive is keep left to right or up to down....it sounds like its still touching the disk too
 
my fd ask me to check every part of my computer, he said it might not be the HD's problem....probably i killed something else when i removed the HD out

is it possible?
if it is....he asked me to take parts from my computer to my brother's computer n test it....test one part each time......but its gonna take me so long.....how can u test every single part of the computer other than the way that my fd told me to?
