Repeated "Disk Read Error" messages for no reason!
Hi, I have a very frustrating problem. One day I was playing a game and then my cp BSOD (it’s OC’d so I wasn’t too alarmed). Then I went to boot back up and all I got was a blinking cursor. No msg, no text, NOTHING! Well I looked around on the internet and though a combination of windows startup repair and bootrec, bootsec, diskpart and chkdsk I was able to get it to where now all it will say is “Disk Read Error, press ctrl+alt+del to restart”. Of course pressing that does nothing. The weird thing is that I know the drive is good, I can read all the data off of it just fine. I don’t think it’s going out as it’s an 80gb intel ssd in a desktop with very good airflow, no issues there. Then when I try to go through windows startup repair it says no problems, clearly lying. Another weird thing is that when I first go to recovery options it will detect my os just fine, but then I run bootrec /scanos and it comes up with a BIG, FAT NOTHING!! I’ve been at this for about 8 hours on and off and I’m at my wits end. Any suggestions or tips are greatly appreciated! I really, really want to avoid formatting and re-installing because I very much want to not have to go through the huge hassle of re-installing EVERYTHING!! And even more so because I know the drive and data are good!
Thanks in advance guys J
