PC Won't Boot, Frozen on Intel Logo

Bump

I've found the offending compenent, my hard drive. Unplugged it from the motherboard and it booted fine into a Hardy live CD. So I think it's time to get a new hard drive (I was thinking about getting a new one anyway ).

I should've known considering I just installed Hardy and it took ages to partition the disk.

Thanks for all the help but is their any possibility their could be a problem with the motherboard where I plug the hard drive in? What are the symptoms of a dead hard drive?

Thanks

it probably hangs because your motherboard can't detect drive's type, size and other parameters...

try waiting more then 5 minutes to see if would skip the drive detection.
