Have never heard that problem before but it sound like your 2nd hard drive is failing. Go and restart your computer then boot on motherboard by pressing Del or F2 while it loading. Go to the details of your Primary and Secondary harddrive. Please note that secondary are called Slave. Please e-mail me the status then maybe I can assist you more. If it say Auto and Unknown then your likely have to replace the harddrive. I'm sorry but it happen!
