I am unable to boot my PC most of the times.Whenever I switch on my PC,I see the following message nine ot of ten times.
?DiskError/Boot Faliure
Reboot and select proper boot device or insert Boot media in selected boot device?.
If I press enter after this messages & keep pressing following messages appear from time to time (Not simultaneously).
1. Following file is courrupted
2. Following file is courrupted
3. Could?nt open drive multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)
NTLDR: Could?nt open drive
Multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)
If just after making the switch on, I press F2 key to check the boot device preference, it is completely ok(all the options for booting are set to Hard disk).So there is no problem of that side.
If just after making the switch on , I press f11 key to reach the boot menu I always find the 1.44 MB Floppy option highlighted as the booting choice.(though there had not been any floppy in the floppy drive, I don?t have any really)I make the hard disk option highlighted & it solves the problem only a few times. But next time when I try F11 key to check the boot menu again I find 1.44 MB floppy highlighted.
To solve my problem
1..I reinstalled Win XP no. of times from different CDs but it really did?nt solve the problem.
2.I even changed my hard disk & the same problem is appearing.I have brand new Samsung (80 GB) hard disk & even my earlier had disk was found completely fine.
3.I ran the virus scan of MCC-Afee though it really has no link as I even changed my hard disk & booted from different Windows
