I wouldn't think so, since it only boots when the USB drive is unplugged.

Boot ini can't be corrupt sinces its installed into the primary HDD. Has to be a bios issue.
Okay. Waiting to find out more.

It freezes before it even gets to the boot sequence.
Yep, unless the external is unplugged from the USB port. Then it starts up normally.

Does the external HDD draw power from the Powersupply or does it have its own power?
It has it's own. I had to move the wall lamp to a different part of the room to make space for the plug.

No, thank you.

And special thanks to SiSoftware Sandra, which shows me everthing about my computer, or else I would have had no clue as to those numbers.
