Error Code 0F00 : 136C

I need help with this error code I am getting on my computer.  My computer will not boot up and just takes me to a blue screen.  I ran some tests on it and came with this error code with a msg of Devuce Failed: Blank media or no media is present in optical device.  Is this a bad thing or something that I can fix?  Help with this would be great!  Thanks so much in advance for any ideas.

    It's not a problem. It simply means you had no blank, writeable CD/DVD in the drive to test with.

    Did you run the extended test on the hard drive, or just a quick one? The extended test is far more definitive, but takes 90-120 min to run.

    If the hard drive is tripping errors, yes, it matters. The error you posted refers to the CD/DVD drive, not the hard drive.
