| Windows 7 Home Premium 3 posts | Hard drive failing? Today I was on this web site and I tried to scroll down and everthing froze up. My screen got dim, then went blank, then a black screen came up saying my boot selection failed and a required device is inaccessible, status: 0xc000000e. Does any one know what this means? Every since then my computer has been unstable, crashing a number of times. Only thing i've done was split my page file. I left the min. amount on my system drive and put the rest on another drive. Both drives are solid state. Could this be the cause of my failure? |

| Windows 7 Home Premium 3 posts | No it's not a clone or image. Don't understand how my drive goes to being inaccessible in the middle of browsing the net. Boot selection failure sounds like a bios issue?? What do I know, i'm a novice and i'm puzzled. Anyway i'll go to the ocz website and see what happens. Thanks |
