We had a long power outage in my neighborhood last night. Once power was
restored, I went to turn the computer back on. It brings up the "Windows
2000 XP professional" screen just fine but then it gets screwy. It will jump
to a screen with a black background that says, word for word:
____________________________________________________________________
STOP: INACCESSIBLE_BOOT_DEVICE (bunch of numbers)
If this is the first time you've seen this stop error screen, restart your
computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:
Check for viruses on your computer. Remove any newly installed hard drives
or hard drive controllers. Check your hard drive to make sure it is properly
configured and terminated. Run CHDSK /F to check for hard drive corruption,
and then restart your computer.
Refer to your Getting Started manuel for more information on troubleshooting
stop errors.

It's not a problem with the hardrive, I ran a system check on that with help
from Gateway support. They said it was a problem with Windows. I can get
help from Microsoft but it will cost over 200 bucks just to talk to someone
on the phone!
Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I don't have the software anymore
(misplaced) so reinstalling that way is not an option. Please help!
