hi,
try to replace the HDD cable.
since you already copied what you needed, format the computer and reinstall the operating system.
install the appropriate drivers.
this should fix the problem.

Thanks for that update.
In fact I did exactly that. I replaced the HDD ribbon cable with two separate other cables, and neither worked. Now I've wiped the HDD and I cannot install the OS without the machine working. I don't want to mess up the one I'm working on. I tried testing if the MOBO could detect if the memory was extracted and it did send the constant beep indicator. I also used an eraser on the memory SIMMs and nothing changed. I also tried dissipating the voltage by unplugging the power and pressing the on button for 60 seconds. I just keep getting the same message "Press Del to Setup or Alt-F2 to enter EZ flash utlility" and the keyboard won't do anything. Nothing has changed through all of this I'm wondering if it has a problem with the MOBO now. Here's a new question: If I unplug an HDD yet have a CD with an OS ready to install shouldn't I be able to press a button on the keyboard (like DEL)?
