Hi

I came home last night to find my computer on a blue screen (for the millionth time!) and now it can't find its hard drive! I have inserted the disks that came with it but it can't do anything as it cant find anything! How do I get it to recognise the hard drive again?

Also how can I get the system to boot off an external hard drive?

Thanks!
