I installed a Microsoft game (Flight Simulator 2002) and when finished rebooted and after the splash screen (the one that shows your devices and such) I received the following error "A disk read error occured press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to restart and I do that and it continues to give me the same question. I cannot even reboot in safe mode. I need to get this pc back up. Can anyone help.

I've seen that more than once where all I needed to do was a scandisk. It corrected what needed to be corrected and everything was fine. Also delete anything in your temp directory. That could cause problems also. Hope this helps.
