question re computer breakdown

[jonnyboy]

it appears my motherboards fooked. When you turn the PC on it detects all the drives but then just sticks. If I buy a new motherboard can I just plug the drives back in and will it run windows normally, I could do with getting to my emails!

How do you know it detects all the drives? can u get into the BIOS?

 

[jonnyboy]

it just comes up on the creen when you boot up, usually that screen dissapears straight away but it just sticks on that. I've just tried it again actually and its booted up ok this time. I'm doing a backup as we speak but I think I'll invest in a new tower and Mobo

It will probably ask you to activate windows again, which u will need to phone.
