    "A Disk Read Error Occured Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart"


    After my Gateway LT280u loads the F2 and F12 screen a black screen Follows saying:
    "A Disk Read Error Occured Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart"
    I have tried and tried again to get it to start.
    Will take any advice to try to fix Computer problem
    (It seems F8 doesn't work when pressed either)
