Hi There I cannot beleive some of the stupid comments such "format and reinstall" or "reboot in safe mode". It is quite clear that your PC is not picking up your HDD on boot so the above methods will never work Reseat your HDD cables and make sure your HDD is showing up in the BIOS and it is set to boot from that. Any questions just ask!
hello HDD is showing in the bios n its set to the 1st boot divice.........after reseat the HDD cables same error is showing
OK find out the disk manufacturer and download the appropriate DOS diagnostics software from their site. Most are listed on my PC Support Tools page Burn to disk and test Let me know how you get on and any questions just ask! Regards
get hold of a WinXP CD that has a system recovery module, run recovery, either an automatic, or thru command prompt run the command "chkdsk \r", (/ or \ ) if it works, you will get the system back, back up all your data, coz your disk has bad sectors, if your disk is in warranty get it replaced, i got my seagate disk replaced, (free of charge) else buy a new one, and you can use this as a slave disk.

Hi There Download UBCD It has loads of HDD tools on there Burn with ImgBurn (free) Let me know how you get on Regards
