Emax

does the HD start up when it stays at loading?

My HD doesn't spin sometimes and a few good hard slaps will jump start it (smack while it is off).

I used to open up the HD and spin it by hand, but someone suggested this and it works very well.

  OK, apparently my drive wasn't corrupted, after about 20000 tries to
  get a boot disk working, the thing just booted off a hard drive again
  out of nowhere. It was working fine for about 24 hours, then started
  messing up again, now it gets as far as "Loding Software" then freezes
  with that stuck on the display, booting up maybe 2% of the time and
  working normally if so. I have 4 zip disks i use, with either on SE HD
  or OS PLUS on each of them, and its been working fine for a year or
  so? Does anyone know why my baby is sick?
