Ibm Disk Read Error
done a fair amount of searching on this topic and am at a loss. My PC is a DELL Dimension E310 desktop. I was removing some unneeded programs using the add/remove programs utility and the computer needed to restart. Upon restarting, the DELL screen came up, followed by a black screen with a blue band that says "www.dell.com." Below this, there is a line that says, "Loading PBR for descriptor 2... done." Below this there is a line that says, "A disk read error occurred," and below this, there is a line that says, "Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart." Upon doing so, the computer goes back to the 1st Dell screen, then back to the last screen mentioned. Can someone please help me get through this so I can at least recover the files that are one the hard drive? I am afraid to take any of the advice on various forums and websites because I have a lot of files that have not been backed up. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you in advance!

Advertisement guacman Thread Starter Joined: Dec 7, 2001 Messages: 47 That is the message I am getting. I've searched high and low for possible solutions that may have worked for others, but not me. I'd like to boot to my Windows XP Home Edition SP3 CD so disk read I can load Recovery Console, but result is a blank black screen after the brief message: "The system is inspecting your computer's hardware configuration." (No HDD activity) The system is a Dell Inspiron B130/1300 laptop, with a hidden Symantec Recovery Disk partition that can be loaded, but none of the so called "recovery points" are found. (Not sure that any were created because that disk read error software was not activated) While in that attempted local disk access to the C: (windows install) drive tells me that C:\ is not accessible. The disk structure is corrupted and unreadable. Instinct tells me that the HDD is finished... but why won't the Windows CD load? I've tried multiple Windows CDs to no avail. Other CD's will boot. Something is fishy to me. guacman, Sep 28, 2009 #1 Mumbodog Joined: Oct 3, 2007 Messages: 7,891 Other boot cd's do not inspect your hardware like XP cd does, it is finding a problem it cannot deal with when detecting the hardware configuration. Here is an article on how to backup your data, I suggest doing it before all is lost. http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/wind...backup-files-from-your-dead-windows-computer/ Mumbodog, Sep 28, 2009 #2 guacman Thread Starter Joined: Dec 7, 2001 Messages: 47 Thanks, downloading Ubuntu CD now. I've got the HD connected to another PC. Windows recognizes physical and logical drives, but cannot read corrupt volume. PC Inspector software doesn't find anything either. Will wait for download to finish and hope all works. guacman, Sep 29, 2009 #3 guacman Thread Starter Joined: Dec 7, 2001 Messa

A disk read error occurred. By hank.cope · 9 years ago My Dell6000 is having hd probs - I get "loading PBR 2 ... done. A disk read error occurred. I understand that this is the XP partition. My hope was that I would be able to boot from a cd, w/ 1st priority to get to my data, 2nd would be to attempt to fix the mbr or pbr. After 3 attempts, I was able to make a bootable XP CD, boot from CD, get a message "inspecting your computers hardware configuration", then the screen goes black. I found reference that this is probably a hosed mbr, try zero-filling the 1st 2% with hd vendor utility. I'm getting deeper into this prob, and dont want to loose my data. Would the best way to proceed be to remove the hd and attach to another pc and attempt to get the data before going any further? If thats the right way to go, also would appreciate advice on how to go about that - the dead laptop is XP home, I have another Dell laptop w/ XP Pro, and a desktop with Windows 2000. Other thoughts? Thanks.
