I dont really need the money

Download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your Desktop.
  • Right click to run as administrator (XP users click run after receipt of Windows Security Warning - Open File). When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.

  • Press Scan button.

  • It will produce a log called FRST.txt in the same directory the tool is run from.

  • Please copy and paste the log back here

  • The first time the tool is run it generates another log (Addition.txt - also located in the same directory as FRST.exe/FRST64.exe). Please also paste that along with the FRST.txt into your reply.

Have you tried the HDD in another computer to see if that works?

Use System File Checker to scan your PC for missing or corrupt files. To do this, follow these steps:
1). Click Start, and then type cmd in the Search box.

2). In the results area, right-click cmd.exe, and then click Run as administrator. You may be prompted to type the password for an administrator account.

3). Click Continue if you are the administrator or type the administrator password and then, click Continue.

4).At the command prompt, type Sfc /scannow and then press ENTER.

The scan may take some time, so be patient. Windows will repair any corrupted or missing files that are found. If information from the installation CD is needed to repair the problem, you may be prompted to insert your Windows CD.

Chances are you have a corrupt driver. Tell me if this helps.
