Please advice..if it's only the PSU ican change it quicky if it's the board then waoooooo am in trouble... my email address is jomilljnr@yahoo.co.uk

if these units are pata ( parallel ATA) units, make sure they are set as masters or slaves which do not conflict with any other items on the same bus or cable.
If you have the hard drive on the same bus, make sure it is set to master and the optical drive is set to slave.
If these are SATA units, try swapping them onto another drive bus.
If this fails, have the units checked on another PC. This will confirm that the units are good and working, if they are not detected on another PC, then they may be faulty.
If you are using Windows 7, check for an updated driver and install it as W7 has a habit of ignoring older peripherals.

try that

When your motherboard/CPU board CMOS battery dry or have charge then you can not run to power *********** board.Or CMOS is disable.Please check

1 Power supply
2 CMOS Battery

Check the Device Manager for driver errors. The error code will signal the type of problem. But in most cases reinstalling the driver will help.

first of all put on a media clip on your media player to see if audio device is detected, if it is detected carefully push in your mini jack for the speaker into the out for your soundcard and sound will surely come out but if the audio device is not detected, install another sound card.

I had the same exact problem for the same exact reason. Plug the power cable into the back. Open up the side of the case and unplug all the wires that the power supply plugs into. The motherboard, harddrive, cd & dvd drives, everything. wait about 10 minutes and plug them back in, plugging the BIG cable that connects to the motherboard back in LAST. This will make the light go from blinking to solid. I think it is a safety? to protect the motherboard from damage.

Disconnect the drive and see if your video card works. If not, something else is broken. Could be the video card, the motherboard, processor or power supply. It is possible for a power supply to fail in such a way that it destroys everything connected to it. If that works, you have made some mistake hooking up the hard drive or it is badly damaged. Hard drives have jumpers that must be set correctly to indicate whether it is a master (1st drive on the ribbon cable) or slave (2nd drive on the ribbon cable). The ribbon cable must be correctly oriented with the red strip going to pin 1 (pin 1 should be marked in very, very small print on the drive's connector).
