WindowsMCE Can't boot up; error code 0F00:0244
Does this mean my hard drive has failed?
I am running the diagnostics and the error code says:
Error Code 0F00:0244
Msg: Block 14363236 Uncorrectable data error or media is write protected
When I boot up either normally, or safe mode, or last known good startup, I get the blue screen and it says unmountable_boot_device (or something like that).
So now I am running the Dell debug tools and I get the above error code.
They are sending me a new hard drive, but is there anyway to maybe recover the info on this drive (like hook this hard drive as a secondary when the new one come in)? Will I still be able to recover data that is saved on the old drive?
Please help!!!

I run into the same problem.
Did you have to pay for the new hard disk, or it is under warrenty?
I bought my Dell notebook in April 2005, and it is over a year now.
Will very appreciate if you can reply and advice.
Thank you ahead.
