    Sweet Celestia, it's worse than I thought. 

    As I feared, again, I'm having troubles booting the PC.

    I unplugged both HDDs and I still cannot go past the post screen. ...It must be the system drive failing.

    That one will be trickier to swap. :raritydespair:

    The timing though, it would be acceptable a year ago or something. That drive is quite old, has only ~250GB, so I was planning to replace it someday... Was planning to buy a new PC in general at that point.

    But now? When I need it the most? See, that's just my luck, I knew everything will go south the moment I become jobless. It surely waited for that moment for maximum emotional damage bonus.

    I'll have to sacrifice some of my savings, because without PC I may as well just give up on life heh.

    Time to search for a replacement! The thing I worry about more is the time it may take. I may just do a fresh system installation at this point.

    I have some important stuff on that drive though.

      At least a little bit of good news.

      I looked around the BIOS and discovered, that I can boot the system from there. This allows me to ignore the warning for the time being. I don't know how serious the situation is, but this way I can buy at least a little bit of time until the drive completely fails. From now on I'll have to enter BIOS each time, heh.

      I was worried my PC is bricked until I can get the replacement, but at least I can somewhat prepare for migration. I managed to narrow down where exactly the problem is, so while I can't say I'm happy with the discovery, I can backup things more accurately.

      I don't really want to invest into upgrades for this old PC, but at least the prices for drives aren't that crazy as they used to be these 10 years ago. :twilightsheepish:

      Who knows, maybe it's not as critical as it makes it sound, but of course I'll look around the shops and try to find a good deal for a replacement.

      I wish you luck, my friend. Sorry you're still have troubles, but I hope you find a fix that will work without costing too much. :pinkiesad2:
