Understood you have a problem, but I highly suggest editing your post for the language.

If you have the HD's setup incorrectly as slave/master the mobo will not detect the drives.. that would be the first place to check. Also make sure there are no burn marks around the wire you ( ) unplugged while the PC was on

did that .... errr well I popped out the mobo chip tried putting it back in and still nothing ..............

did that .... errr well I popped out the mobo chip tried putting it back in and still nothing .............. the problem isnt the hardrives its my pc not booting!

you may have killed the mobo

if you have access to another machine you can put your individual componets in there one at a time to see what works and what is, well you know............

I'm glad this seems funny to you. What made you think you can just unplug things and re-attach them with the power on? Come on now! For whats its worth I had a bone head tech at my lab short the +12V and Ground (some how... still have not got the entire story there) but there was sparks and smoke, but after the smoke cleared everything stiill worked. Hopefully yours will too.
