error code 1000-0142
I know my hd just went out but I was wondering if anyone knew what this fail code is.
I ran the dell troubleshooting disk and the following came up
DST SHORT STATUS TEST--FAIL
ERROR CODE 1000-0142
ALSO
MSG:UNIT4: DRIVE SELF TEST FAIL

Hello,
Bypassing the administrator password will not work in windows xp rather i know how to bypass it in vista or win7. According to me the administrator password in win xp cannot be bypassed. Can u please make me clear the administrator account which u r taking abt has it been listed when u boot the comp in safe mode option. If u needed files to be backed up from the os drive it's simple it can solved by doing a parallel installation with the os disk.

Remove the hard drive, mount it in an external case, and attach it by USB to a working system. Copy what you can still read before you replace the drive.

Chkdsk will fix the issue temporarily - suggest you to backup the data ASAP and call dell tech support for hard drive replacement provided you have warranty.
