    After installing a new gpu and updating my drivers from driver easy it asked me to restart my pc. I did. Now it loads for a long time then says error 1962 no operating system found. My hard drive has been making noises from the beginning of the year to now, since my dad bought the computer he had three hard drives installed, one completely malfunctioned one is having a smart event the one I believe has the windows and another is fine. I bought a new hard drive to transfer the files I had but since it was working still I didn’t make it a priority. My dad bought this at a fry’s electronics st

    Samsung SSD appears to have kicked the bucket

    Thank you for the suggestion. Just perchance it is the Drive, have you ever heard of an SSD kicking out in so quick a time?

    Spunk, here's a screen shot. I had removed the Data F: previously then suddenly the machine would not boot. I cloned it again from my older hard drive and of course, the partition is there again. I dare not remove it again unless I have a real boring day and I want grief.

    Overclock your hard drive!!!

    Heres a much easier hack that I realized quite a few years ago that really does work!

    REQUIREMENTS:
    • Hard drive with molex power connection.
    • PSU with more than 1 strand that has molex plugs on it.
    • Wire strippers, soldering iron if you're fancy, electrical tape if you're not.
    STEPS:
    • Take the strand of connectors from your PSU, and decide which one will be the donator for this overclocking adventure.
    • Cut the yellow and orange cables, then twist them together.
    • Find the power connector you've chosen as the overclocking connector, and release the orange cable from the connector. Now use your preferred method to bind them together, then place it back together.
    • Plug in a drive and feel the speed!
    Congratulations! You've just overclocked your hard drive!
