A Disk Read Error Occurred Windows 7
in advance for any support given to me. I recently bought a few parts to upgrade my computer. I bought a disk read error occurred press ctrl+alt+del to restart a new Motherboard, new RAM, new processor and a new Hard drive. Installation went smoothly with few problems, and everything seems to be working. The BIOS loads fine, the RAM is found disk read error windows 10 and a memory diagnostic shows it's fine and the CPU is running at the stock 3.3GHZ speed as it should, (Although really hot, but that's a question for another time)The problem is Windows. It installed without issue to my hard drive. I put in the CD, booted from CD drive and installed. However, on restart, I get an error saying "A disc read error occured

pres ctrl+alt+del to restart". This happens when I boot directly from the HD from the BIOS while the windows CD is in the disc drive. (Boot priority is HD -> Disc drive, by the way) If the CD is removed, the error does not appear, and windows attempts to load, but fails and I instead get a new error 0xc00000e9 saying files are missing or corrupt. Then I get a menu to load windows normally, safe mode, etc, but all options give the same error.If the hard drive is broken, I can send it back to Newegg and get a new one, which is a relief.Please help if at all possible! 3 answers Last reply Jan 30, 2012 Best Answer Sep 6, 2011 More about disc read error occurred hard drive Best answer alyoshkaSep 6, 2011, 2:07 PM Have you checked for that particular error elsewhere?http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en/itprovistasetup/thread/1e026c5c-c825-434b-8d0c-79dd8cfe29e4Most people have said it's not a HDD fault, it's your installation medium, in your case it's the CD....Get a fresh copy of the Disc or then try using a USB image to reinstall the OS.You Say " Installation went smoothly with a few problems"...... Contradictory terms

Bad disk, compatability issue, or doing something wrong? More details inside. I have a Dell Latitude D400 laptop which is about five years old and works well. My old hard drive went belly-up (terrible clicking noise, and no machine could read it), so I purchased a replacement. Being an older computer, my laptop uses what I believe is now generally referred to as a Parallel ATA (PATA) connector (as shown on the right side here). A cover is placed over the pins before connecting it to the computer. I chose the largest PATA drive I could find, which on NewEgg is described as using an ATA-6 connector. (My understanding is that ATA-6 is a part of the PATA family.) I placed the disk in my system and began trying to install Windows XP Pro. The Windows installation CD recognized the drive, formatted it, and apparently copied some install files to the drive. (I have used the same install CD without any problems before.) However, as the installation proceeded, Windows apparently rebooted, and the system could no longer recognize the drive. That's when I got the dreaded "Disk Read Error Occurred - Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to Restart" message. That's all the message says - nothing more. And pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del accomplishes nothing... you just get the same error again. To isolate the error, I tried three things: 1) I placed the hard drive in a six-year-old Dell Latitude D600 (which also works well, and also uses a PATA connector) but got the same error. 2) I put the drive back in the D400, and, using an Ubuntu Live CD (9.03), my computer was able to recognize the drive. I was even able to partition it and install Ubuntu on it. However, upon restarting, the computer was still unable to recognize the drive. I got some Linux-y error message (I failed to write it down), not the Ctrl+Alt+Del message, but it didn't make any difference - the boot process would not continue, even upon a restart. 3) I also tried putting the drive in a USB enclosure a
