A while ago, my X850 died out on me, i boot up and all i got was long beeps. I just bought a 8800 GT, it came in today. I Boot up and i get 3 long beeps, then a normal one and the computer boots up. I let it boot up normally, and after it loads CMOS i get a black screen, a screen with just some random numbers, once i got a invalid boot.ini file error.

I have no clue whats going on. My RAM is ok, my brother was using for a few months and it ran flawlessly on his pc. The PSU is just about brand new, and never had a problem, and just about everything else is ok

The only thing that the errors point to are the HD, but I'm not sure. Anyone mind helping me out?

i got a picture of the boot.ini error if that will help someone figure out my problem.
