Yea the hdd could cause the problem. When you unplug it does the computer work better?

Maybe you need a new IDE/ATA cable for you HDD. Could be the problem or maybe your HDD is damaged in some way, how old is your HDD?

anyway, i think the problems fixed, at least for now. the hard disk is being detected and windows is running fine. i just removed all the wires and plugged them again!
