First make sure that the bios sees the hard drive.

You might have a problem too if it's a sata drive and you unpluged from one channel and put it back in a different one.

You could probably upgrade to x1950 2gb ram and a faster p4, that would probably be kind of ok, but your probably better off with a new dual core and pci-e computer.

check the bios to see if there is any options that disable pci-e. and try disabling the on board video before using the pci-e slot.

I dont know how removing the front would change anyhting, but you could go into the bios and make sure its booting off the right device, and check boot screen to see if the hard drive shows up.

Some double cheese burgers and a pack of smokes usually stops my heart attacks.
