disk read error occurred
I received and error message "disk read error occurred, pressC+A+D to restart" I do this and it continues to do the same thing. I ran the OS diagnostics disk and it came up failing 2 areas. Sorry I cant remember, at work, no other computer at home. When the computer tries to boot, the HD sounds like a dentist's drill, high pitch whine for a few seconds, then the error message. I threw in the boot disk, which will run, but it takes me to D: or if in the floppy A: I am in denial that my HD may be bad. :smileysad: My system is still under warranty. Any suggestions?

Hi,
I had exactly the same problem last night. I think the HD is dead. Let me know if you find a way to resolve this. I will most likely send my DJ back to Dell.
