    Prohibited Sign - Won't Boot!

    No, not yet as I have only got windows installed at the moment. I'm going to try and get it sorted out next week with the help you have given. Okay, thank you for the tip about removing the partitions. I'll post back on here if I get it sorted! Thank you for your help!

    Well, it's not the hard drive. I've installed windows for the past month and been running stress tests most days on graphics, cpu and hard drive. It's been running flawlessly! So I've now hit a brick wall so to speak.
