One day I was putting on my side panel, while the computer was on, and I was plugging in the wire from the fan to the motherboard when I accidently unpluged the power cord to the hard drive. I didn't notice it right away. The music stoped playing and the mouse froze, then BSOB and restart. THen it said Error Loading OS, and so I went into the BIOS and saw that the hard drive wasn't shown, thats when I started checking everything and saw the wire was unpluged, so I pluged the power wire back in to the hard drive and turned i on, and it still says Error Loading OS, but it works when I go the Boot Mnu and select that hard drive then it loads it. Also, after that the computer works, but now it's glitching, like it fails to write CDs with WMP, and it crashes in photoshop, it became slower, less responsive, IExplorer eats 300-400k of ram, I have vista ultimate x32 with 2GB of 800Mhz RAM. If anyone knows how I can fix the error loading OS thingy I would be so happy. I dont' want to reinstall windows, thas the last thing I'm gonna do.
I have a WD5000AAKS hard drive, which As I know is a pretty new safe hard drive Ithink it had some protection from shock. Also, in the device manager, when I right click on the hard drive, and go to properties, then the policies tab, I have "enable advanced performance" checked, which it said it was only recommended if the computer is on a battery, because it might loose data in case of power loss with that option, do you think windows files could have vanished because of that? I have Q6600, 2GB of ram, 8600GT 512mb, and a gigabyte ga-ep43-ds3l motherbaord, running vista ultimate x32. built 3 weeks ago. It feels slow for it's specs. Always kept in good condition (defagmanted disk cleaned, optimized) all that stuff.

You have to reinstall windows...its the only thing that will fix your problem. You messed up the install when you unplugged the HDD, you're lucky you didn't kill it.
