Power supply and Seagate Barracuda 120 Gb hdd

June 20th, 2007, 10:48

Hi,

I purchased a new HDD today, a seagate barracuda 7200 - 120gb non-sata drive (ST3120022A). It doesnt seem to work. The moment i install the hard drive my pc doesnt seem to boot. I cud observe that every time the system tries to boot after a few secs, it gives up and tries to boot again (This happens during the POST). I dont get to see anything on the screen. Infact i dont even get to see the normal post messages.

My config is

intel 845GVSR mother board
intel p4 processor @ 2.4 ghz
frontech 300w PSU.

I also tried unplugging all the other devices, dvd rom and old HDD and yet no avail. The HDD is ok, i got it checked.

Is this a problem with the PSU

thanks in advance.
