How bad is it? (computer drive problem)?
ok, I have two computers, the first one is old. around 64 MB hard drive space 124MB RAM and 800MHz processor speed. The second one is newer: about 130MB hard drive space 512MB RAM 3GHz processor speed. I was on the second one on a linux live cd and I accidental set a storage partition as the active partition, so my computer stopped booting and I couldn’t configure anything or run a live cd, basically I couldn’t access my hard drive. So I removed the hard drive and replaced it with the old hard drive (the 64MB one) I still can’t boot but I can access the hard drive through a linux live cd. I also tried attaching both, the old one as the master, the newer one (the original one) as the slave so I could fix the newer one, but it didn’t work. So I removed both and put in the old one (as mentioned before) so I can’t boot but I can access my hard drive and install linux (I dont have the windows install disk) I haven’t installed it yet though.
Is my second (newer) hd fixable?
