I am running an HP Compaq Presario V6000 Notebook with a Windows Vista Home edition i belive
When i try to turn my computer on i am getting teh
A disk read error has occurred; press Ctrl-Alt-Del to restart
error.
The system has been acting strange teh past couple of days, freezing up, blue screen of death, an di noticed it started after I had borrowed a friends camera and plugged in the USB to retrieve the pictures, it was after that my system started spitting out the BSOF and freezing up on me.
Last night i was talking to my son on msn, it froze, i shut it down and walked away, this morning i woke up, ready to work, turned on the system and got the error message
My system is my bread and butter, it is how i conduct work and make my money. I have been down 2 days now and have a few unhappy clients
I am hoping someone can help me figure out the problem, At this point, I dont care if i lose files, i just want my system back. Keeping my files would be lovely, but, i will settle for losing them if need be
Oh...
When i hit f12 while booting...i get this error....
PXE E61 Media Test Failure, Check Cable
PXE MOF Exiting Nvidia Boot agent
(the sometimes, under the above it will show Operating system not found)
again though, the operating system not found error doesnt always show up
so..if i dont hit anything and just turn on the computer, i get the
A disk read error has occurred; press Ctrl-Alt-Del to restart
errror
if i hit f12 while booting. i get the
PXE E61 Media Test Failure, Check Cable
PXE MOF Exiting Nvidia Boot agent
error, with the operating system error once in a while
