A disk read error occurred ctrl alt del
Solved/Closed
Hello,
I have a Acer Notebook PC with 320 3 GB HD, 3 GB RAM, DVD+RW, My Os is windows vista ultimate. Today when I start my computer, suddenly it slows down. I switched off the laptop. After when I start again, I see a message " A disk error occurred, Press Alt Ctrl Delete to restart. I press these button several time but It remains the same error. Could you please give me advice? Thank you

I suspect that your hard disk has failed. You will need to purchase a new disk and re-install your copy of Windows. If you buy a USB hard disk adapter you may be able to save some or all of the data on the failed disk.
Good Luck
