That code error meaning that you have a problem with HHD 1st you reboot your machine with push 0+8 than 690 start 2 set(interrupt). If it don't wok you mast replace your HHD with a new one from Toshiba.
turn of pc, Remove from hdd cabeles, there is two, change you hdd and out cables in their place, you can not put power cable to another palce, there is all have their place, for example you can not put hdd power cable to hdd Ide otr Sata port.
First, do you have a 40-wire or an 80-wire parallel-ATA ribbon-cable?
If you have the 40-wire cable, you need to set the jumpers on both of the old drives.
Set one disk-drive to 'master' (maybe also add 'with slave present').
Set one disk-drive to 'slave'.
If you have the 80-wire cable, you need to set the jumpers on both of the old drives.
Set both disk-drives to 'C(able)S(elect)'.
Is the new SATA drive just a "data" drive, or did you install Windows onto it?
Most of these problems are associated with an I.C. on the board that governs the HHD. Unfortunately, the chip gets pitted (overheats) on the GaAs and is ruined. The green light (LED) on the HHD will turn on as it is getting power but the main chip that controls the HHD no longer works thus rendering the HHD inoperative.
Bottom line, get a new external drive. Should you get the same model or something similar to what type of electronic hardware you have, you can remove the new HHD and put your old HHD in its place and you will see that all of your data is still intact.
You can restore the computer back to factory default,to do so, follow the below steps: Turn OFF the computer, now as soon as you hit the power button, keep on holding "Alt" key & keep on tapping "F10" key, i.e Alt+f10, it will open the recovery console, select full factory restore and follow onscreen instruction. NOTE: This will erase all the datas on the computer.
Hello there: please try this first unplug the power to the computer next open the case and unplug all of the cables and cords that connect to the harddrive cd rom ect ect now locate the power supply cord that goes to the motherboard and disconnect press the power button on the computer for 20 seconds and also if you have a reset button press it . what this hoes is releases any stored esd that is in the computer .. now plug in the power supply back into the board and plug in the power cord and try to boot the computer and see if it comes on if so great just plug in the cords to the cd rom harddrive ect ect and than reboot and you should be ok
the seagate HHD (secondary drive) need to be on the same cable as the primary HHD. unless you haev SATA. then it is need to be connected to the second SATA connector on the mother board.
go to BIOS setup and make sure the BIOS know there are 2 HHD.
you should be good to go.
sound like the hhd is going .
backup all your files to some external hhd or to another computer.
use the Window Xp Cd to reformat eh hhd and reinstall Xp. if the format encounter hhd problem it will stop. in that case, you need to buy a new hhd and replace it. if not the format will go throught, do that twice and reinstall XP.
That should solve your problem =)
