ok. I cleaned eye and still same response. I tried to boot up in safe mode and lo and behold it works. I can also boot to norton recovery tool on startup. So, My problem is software related? I am going to try and install a known good drive as a secondary drive to see if the same problem occurs with known good and old drive at same time. I really am thinking that DAEMON tools which I uninstalled earlier is somehow responsible. This is not my rig. One I am repairing. I originally updated DAEMON tools to most current to see if that was the problem but it still did not work which is why I deleted. There is 2 drivers for my one physical drive. Should that be? One I am thinking is the virtual driver for DAEMON. But it wont uninstall completely. When I reboot it is right there. LOL I know this is alot of info. Trying to be thorough.
