Disk Read Error: Press Ctrl+Alt+Del To Restart

Mar 31, 2009

I had Vista 64x and Windows 7 build 7057 set up in a dual boot with Windows 7 on a 30Gb partition.

Acting on advice in another thread I decide to shrink my Vista partition and expand my Windows 7 partition using GParted.

That seemed to go ok and I shrank Vista partition to about 400GB and expanded the Windows 7 partition to about a 100GB.

However, I now cannot boot at all. When I try I get "A disk read error occurred. press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart".

When I try this nothing happens and I have to do a power shutdown.

I have attempted repairs using my Vista disk and that tells me nothing is wrong. Likewise I tried repair with my Windows 7 disk with the same result. Both tell me that the system booted succesfully.

I then tried reinstalling both Vista and Windows 7 to their respective partitions and I still get no boot and a Disk read error message.

I have been in the BIOS and tried every boot device option but still nowhere.

I'm writing this from the Asus Splashtop OS that came with my mobo. I thought it was a bit of a gimmick but it might just save me now!

Disk Read Error Press Ctrl+Alt+Del To Restart?

Aug 16, 2012

I am working on a MSI CR620 laptop that is running Win 7 HP x64. On start up it says to press F3 for recovery, I have done that and have gone through the recovery, getting the post that windows has been installed completely, and to press ok to restart, after pressing okay, the computer restarts and I get the "Disk read error, press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart again. I have ordered a recovery disk from the manufacturer, but I don't have warm fuzzys that it will correct the issue.

A Disk Read Error Has Ocurred Press Ctrl + Alt + Del To Restart

Mar 11, 2012

The laptop is an HP Mini 1000 running Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit. It was working fine and I turned it on today and the message: "A disk read error has ocurred Press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart" appeared on the screen. Pressing Ctrl + Alt + Del just reboots but the same message appears again. F8 won't get me anywhere. Only F9 (Boot Device Order) and F10 (BIOS settings) are available but don't fix anything. There is no way to make it boot or even get to a repair screen or past it. Any suggestions to make it boot so at least I can get to the data and back it up?

'A Disk Read Error Occurred Press Ctrl+alt+del To Restart'

Jul 18, 2011

My friend just called me up with the error in the topic title, that happened on his Lenovo G550.I've searched for a solution, but all I've seen is "run a data recovery" or "reinstall Windows 7" type of answers.I wouldn't be comfortable opening his computer up.I'm not sure how I would run recovery mode in BIOS or run a simple check for all the Windows 7 necessary files as it doesn't even boot up. (The error shows and that's about as far as it goes, except for BIOS).

Disk Error Has Occured Press Ctrl + Alt + Del To Restart?

Sep 4, 2012

I have an Acer Aspire 5732Z here. A friend of mine had a disk in the disk drive and said that he opened the tray and the disk was no longer there, but actually inside the laptop. He managed to get the disk out but it went fully into the laptop. He did all of this while the laptop was still turned on. I dunno whether it turned off itself or he turned it off after that, but now it constantly comes up with A disk error has occured press ctrl + alt + del to restart on boot upI have downloaded ubuntu and placed it on a disk, and booted the disk up using F12, it goes to a purple screen for a bit, then goes to a black screen and doesn't do anything else

I turned my computer on today. When I checked it some time later, I had an error of messages saying lots of files (mostly .dll) could not be found (or something along those lines). Explorer.exe kept crashing, before a constant bombardment of similar messages came up. After a while, clicking ok to all of them, the computer froze.When I tried restarting, I got the message "A disk read error occurred Press Ctrl + Alt + Del to restart"

A Disk Read Error Occurred, Press Crtl+Alt+Del To Restart

Jan 2, 2012

I turned on my computer today to play a few games and it started to lag like crazy and eventually freeze. So I just turned off the monitor and went somewhere. 3-4 hours later, I came back to discover a message on my screen. It said "A disk read error occured. Please press Crtl+Alt+Del to restart."I did this a few times and the now I'm at a screen with the title of "msi mainboard". Part of the screen is cut off so yeah...

Initializing USB Controllers .. Done.
*096MB OK
USB Device(s) : 1 keyboard, 1 mouse
Auto-Detecting IDE Master .. ATAPI CDROM
Auto-Detecting IDE Slave... ATAPI CDROM
Auto-Detecting SATA1 .. Hard Disk

[code]....

Anyways, after typing all that, I pressed F1 and it brought me to a Windows XP loading screen (must've booted from my hard drive that has WinXP) but now it's stuck on a black screen.

BOOTMGR Is Missing Press Ctrl+alt+del To Restart?

Nov 12, 2012

i couldn't get the startup repair to appear on pressing f11 at the time of startup, so that i could restore to factory settings.

1.Right-click on "Computer" icon and select manage.

2.This will launch the Microsoft Management Console.

3.On the left side of the MMC, click on "Disk Management" and it will show you all of the partitions.

4.Right-click on the "HP Recovery" partition and select "Mark as Active Partition."

5.When the warning prompt appears, select "Yes" - Reboot and it will automatically boot into the Recovery Manager (without pressing F11).

And step 5 never happened...instead this is what i got:

BOOTMGR is missing press ctrl+alt+del to restart
on restarting and pressing esc, i get
f1 system information
f2 system diagnostics
f9 boot device options
f10 BIOS setup
f11 system recovery

nothing works and I don't even have recovery disks((I know I am the dumb)..plus I don't have access to any other windows computer and my hospital software only works on windows?

Bootmgr Missing - Press Ctrl+alt+del To Restart

Oct 27, 2009

i'm a bit desperate here! I partitioned my C drive so that I could install windows 7 (which i did and was running fine). i then tried to delete the partition on which vista was still installed (my new partition H drive had 7 installed on it) I was googling stuff online and read that the Boot files had to be copied to the H drive from C drive. I did that and also changed the H drive to Active. I had to restart my computer and upon doing so, i got the error bootmgr missing press ctrl+alt+del to restart. i do that and i get the same error.

I don't even know how i can access either operating system since that error keeps coming up everytime my computer is started. what do i do to get windows up and running again. and i don't have any installation cd of either win 7 or vista (i got a link to download win 7 and vista was pre-installed).
