Recreate the bootable diskette or CD you are attempting to boot since the disc may be bad. If this is a CD or DVD (not burned) try cleaning the disc or make sure there are no smudges or finger prints on the bottom of the disc. Try booting the diskette or disc in a different computer. If that computer can boot without the error it is likely you have a problem with your drive. Basic floppy disk drive troubleshooting.
