PC goes into an endless BOOT loop

Boot loop
Dell Inspiron 530
Windows 7 Home Premium 32bit
AMD Athlon 64 dual core
4GB DDR2
EVGA Graphics Card
PC showed no sign of powering on,
Removed graphics card
Disconnected HDD and DVD/CD ROM
Tested the power supply unit with multi meter all voltages are OK
Removed CMOS battery and replaced with new battery
Replaced the graphics card and connected the HDD and the DVD/CD ROM
The pc powered on and could hear the beep as normal, had the message Diskette drive 0 seek failure, went into the BIOS disabled the Floppy A [1.44, 3.5 in.]
Set the BOOT device priority to;
First Hard Disk
Second CD ROM
Third Removable
Fourth Hard Disk although there isn’t a fourth HDD
I am confused as on the HDD Group Boot Priority it states “1 3rd Master: WDC WD5000AAKS-75YGA0" which is my only HDD that has ever been installed with Windows plus data and applications.





The problem I have now is that the BOOT sequence goes into a loop and does not load Windows but instead after each loop the screen shows that there is NO SIGNAL and the pc starts again and the splash screen displays but the pc goes into the same loop over and over again with no other message.
Any help with sorting this endless loop and getting the pc to load Windows would be most appreciated.

The pc in question in this post is not mine but a friend.

But the question pertains to Win 7, apparently, and the expertise in that can best be found on sevenforums.

I have now posted on Windows 7
