    Error loading operating system.


    I come home from work, open the lid on my comp, and see this black screen. I've never messed with the HD, or have had any problems like this in the past. When I left the computer everything was fine (I left the power on) After seeing this message I hit the power button and tried to reboot again, only to have the same issue. What the heck happened? Anything I can do? I have windows 7.

    Hi -

    Boot with your Windows 7 DVD or via the HDD recovery partition and try system repair or Windows System Restore.

    Regards. . .

    Make sure all cables are plugged in securely, and do as jcgriff2 suggested.

    Don't have a disk. Tried start up repair. I guess my HD is dead/dying. Awesome.
