Everything was fine, until I turned it on and it wouldn't start up, it keep cycling asking me if I wanted to start in safe mode or last good configuration, but would never startup. I ran diagnostics and I got error code 2000-0142. I have a Dell Inspiron E1505. Upon looking up this code all I have found is that the harddrive failed. Is this true? It is a new hdd, and nothing happened to it, or the last one for that matter. Could something internally be causing my harddrives to fail?

Arizona, USA ID: 2 Posted February 10, 2010 Is that Notebook still under a warranty? You might have a CPU heating problem, or Hard Drive problem? If the error has a number or any digits after it. Try to post that here. If its under warranty. I would have a Dell tech. look at it..regards.

Oh oh… got the dreaded Blue Screen of Death and Dell's infamous "Code 2000-0142" on my Dell Studio 17 Laptop. Diagnostics says my hard-drive has failed. The message is something like "harddrive 0 - self test unsuccessful = status 79″ UNMOUNTABLE_BOOT_VOLUME". Instead of automatically replacing the HD, I Googled the error message and found this (below) at www.pcguide.com (here's the original thread) This is what I did after piecing together snippets of info from multiple websites and hours of frustration. Insert your OS disk into your cd/dvd drive As the machine boots up - it should have an option to hit F2 or F12 Hit the F12 key This will give you the option of where to boot your machine from. Select boot from CD/DVD drive For me windows loaded some files and gave me an option to either install windows or repair. I selected repair I was then asked for the admin password -- typed it in. It brings you to a command prompt : Type in CHKDSK or Type in CHKDSK/R Hit the ENTER key Once your machine has finished and repairing the hard drive, type EXIT and press ENTER to restart your laptop. I have also found another command that could be tried if the above fails. Bear in mind, i didnt have to do it, but will post it here anyway. After the command prompt - type in FIXBOOT According to the DELL website the error code 2000-0142 is a Drive Self Test failed error code. Update… October 20, 2012 Didn't work for me. I couldn't get to a command prompt to use CHKDSK
