Error Code 2000-01 42
Recently my computer has been randomly completely freezing and sometimes it says that disc 01 or something like that has failed, when I hard restart it always goes to some atheos pcie boot log in or what ever it's called, all I do is shut down and reboot and it doesn't go to that again until another freeze.
My laptop is Alienware M17x r3
Full error code:
2000-01 42

After reinstalling the hard drive re-run the diagnostics if you receive the same error code Contact DELL.
Run the Drive Self Test (DST) from the Utility Partition also known as the 32 bit diagnostics to determine if the previous error has been corrected.
If the DST from the Utility Partition does not indicate a failure of the drive, we consider the error to have been corrected and the drive does not need to be replaced.
