ok guys, here's my problem
this is the system
motherboard: Asus MS97 LE R2.0
memory: Corsair 4 Gb
cpu: AMD FX 4300 quad-core 3.80 GHz
gfx card: NVidea GeForce GT 610
SSD: Kingston 240 Gb
HDD: Seagate Baracuda 4 Tb
PSU: 650 W
now my problem is this, when i boot up the pc with just the SSD connected, it works fine, but when i add the 4Tb HDD, the pc starts but i do not get anything on the screen, it just stays black.
i tested the 4Tb HDD on another pc and it works just fine.
can it be that the GFX card doesn't get enough power? should i put in another gfx card with an extra powerline to it?
i know you guys here are aces, so someone must know the answer to my problem
thnx guys

The two possibilities are either the HDD alters the boot sequence or the PSU isn't supplying enough power, which seems improbable.
