You need an upgrade, pajeet.
>>
That processor is from 2003. Your hardware is literally worth $5. Replace the entire thing

>>53557208
I'll be your primary slave OP

My only guess is that the HD is broken, but good luck finding an IDE drive.

this guy posted this on /b/ earlier...

apparently, he's trying to keep the files on the drive because he's too retarded to understand how legacy hardware works.

OP, read the goddamn sticky.

>trying to keep the files on the drive
What?
>>
>>53557691
I mean, he doesn't want to lose them. He's trying to access them on the drive, and he can't boot into his OS.

Check cables on drives, check motherboard battery and bios settings .ide 133 pci raid card for mirror is good to avoid loosing files ,boot a gparted disk/usb see if you can mount and backup add a sata 3.0 card ssd the beast
>>
Holy moly it's real. It's totally fucking real!
>>
>>53557208
Throw the hardware in the dumpster, then kill yourself. Faggot.

>>53557984
You have to go back to /b/, my wayward child.

>>53557208
It's not booting, so it might be a hard drive problem
>>
>Athlon XP 2200+
>not even a based Barton 2500+ OC'ed to 3200+ specs

DESIGNATED

>>53557208
Check your time settings. If it's set to the manufacturer date, your CMOS battery is drained and need to be replaced by a new one.
>>
>>53557208
Try booting with out the cd drive.

i've seen one ide connector on the mobo fail on two different pc in my time. swap the cable from the cdrom to the hard disk.
