You posted under the PowerEdge BIOS/Firmware section.

Which PowerEdge model do you have (that it uses an ide driver), and which version of Windows? (2000, 2003, 2008, 2008 R2)

Dear Dev Mgr,

I do not understand Power Edge model....my windows is Vista Home

I also know I posted under the BIOS as I thought it would be relevant here...sorry!

Thanks!

Try posting under desktops or laptops and list which model desktop or laptop you have.

You're more likely to get an answer/solution in the appropriate section of hardware.

I have the same problem as the above description. on wndows boot i get a black window. it states a recent hardware or software change might be the cause

to fix the problem: it gives me a few options. after trying each option, I get the same black window again. Info: windows failed to load because a critical sytem

driver is missng, or corrupt, Can you tell me what to do. windows passed all of its dionogstics tests. nothing seems to be corrupted, or missing. can you please

advise me.

I highly suggest you speak to tech support about this so they can walk you through the process of attempting to fix this. Doing this via a forum can take a lot of time and could cause  you to lose data.
