OK we just moved and i was setting up my computer so that the cable guy can come set us up today with internet well anyway i get there and turn it on, case fan was vibrating rougly, so i turn it off, problem fixed i removed side pannel. than the cpu fan and chipset fan would stop after the post beep. ok wtf? turn off removed all drives. turned back on. same. i noticed there was a strange rotating grinding noise coming from the PSU. i thought oh ****** i busted another psu. well it was my dvd-cdrw drive pulled that out and im going to bring it back today and get a new one. well than it was turning on, fans all spinning but nothing was coming up! and it beep 2 long beeps, than 5 second pause, than again. turned off, reseated the video card, took out a stick of ram. nothing. put in both ram and this time it came up, but i had to edit some stuff in bios, no biggie. than i plugged my sata drive back in, froze on the windows boot screen and restarted its self, no BSOD nothing just reboot. came up with safe mode menu and i did last known good configuration. and it came up. i am at my work pc now and i was just wondering if there is anything i can do to avoid this from happening everytime i turn on my computer?! i mean another thing i noticed was that my fan monitor on my case(raidmax x1) was spinning slow and its plugged into the fan monitor from my PSU so like, does that mean my psu fans are slow? any ideas? need specs? let me know.
 
Sounds like the computer had been bounced around during the move, good thing you reseated all components.

Hard drive recognized in bios and boot order correct?
 
well, if you know how to do it, I don't see how that can go wrong (cpu reseating).

The thing is, hard drives are most prone to damage during moves or any kind of knocks to the case since the internal parts are very fragile.

Do you have another computer to use that test test with or have another hard drive to test out your current system with?
 
not really its kinda on the low down that i have the one i do(i kinda borrowed it from work) but i can possibly pull one but it wont be sata
