Read C:\ Windows Server
D:\Windows pro

When operating properly read

I don't really know what you mean with "Read C:\ Windows Server" but a good
starting point is to download and run the disk diagnostic tool that your
disk manufacturer has on his web site.

Read means what appeared in the monitor when booted up. Seems like somehow the boot ini file may have changed?
