I had this problem a couple of months ago with a 4 year old PC. I
unplugged and replugged the connection cable at the HD end and the MB.
The reseating got me back in operation. Worth a try.

New PC. Too old to try to resuscitate.
The computer is a Dell XPS 1 Gz. Pentium III with 256K rdram. It can't
be upgraded to Windows XP according to Dell. My daughter uses it for
games and internet access. What is the best course of action? Buy a
cheapie PC or buy a new disk drive?
