Disc Error

I had a similar thing happen a few weeks ago. It went into a dark screen right after the initial flash screen with the message, "unable to boot into Windows".

That introductory splash screen flashes by so fast - the screen with the press various Function keys functions, it is impossible to read - I finally booted and pressed the correct Function key and it went into the old DOS like menu to select from, and I selected repair mode.

Luckily the computer repaired itself and fortunately the OS it repaired from was in a small D: drive location, and all of my Data was saved. I didn't need to use the recovery DVD's I made years ago.

It is running better than ever now. Yesterday I did a complete CHKDSK just for fun and everything on the HD was also fine.

Nothing like that has ever happened to me. I have no virus's, malware, etc, I checked with several different programs. So far it is back to smooth sailing.
