A:\>

im no good with dos and i have no clue on the commands i need to USE will any one run me through
what to do

need help soon not going to be on line for longcan no one help thenWell, maybe - now you've booted from your system disk what exactly do you want to do? A bit more info might help like which boot disk did you use, what OS you are USING, do you have the OS cd.

Do you want to format & reinstall your OS or do a repair job? Do you have BACKUP for files (including progs & data) you don't want to lose?

Did you install any software just prior to this message appearing at boot?The real problem is that something has corrupted your boot on the hard disk. That's the BIOS message to deal with that issue, but OBVIOUSLY what you do will depend on what specific issue you have.

You could have a corrupted disk, defective disk, some other hardware issue, etc.
