Re: Unknown Hard Error and after reboot Unaccessible boot device

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

Dear Patrick,

thanks for your answer.

- both of the links don't describe my problem. The first Error (popup
with "Unknown hard Error") appeared while running the system (so
driver was already loaded into the memory). On the disk the (only
affordable) driver has correct size and date, NTFS seems to be OK.
- I really don't like to use the Recovery Console, cause I don't know
what it does. Especially on this computer I have some settings, that I
don't want to change (or to be changed by RC)- e.g. two BDE
installations, Interbase & Firebird parallel etc. These should be
"repaired" by a good error searching routine. Just tell me : Is the RC
that good ? Then I don't want to use it ;-)

In order to start the RC you will need to boot the Windows 2000 setup disks
or CD-Rom and *F6* very early and very important (at setup is inspecting
your system) in the setup to prevent drive controller detection, and select
S to specify additional drivers. Then later you'll be prompted to insert the
manufacturer supplied Windows 2000 driver for your drive's controller in
drive "A"

One of these may help.http://support.microsoft.com/kb/101096/en-ushttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/327020/en-us

Hi there,

just a few hours before I had a popup-window on my screen, where only
was written "Unknown Hard Error" and a button to click OK. The Error
appeared while I was doing nothing (but using my telephone).
Applications in the background were continue to run (I have an
application, where I can see, whether its running or not), even with
network access. But no reaction to keyboard or mouse.

After rebooting via RESET-button, there's a bluescreen with
error-message
STOP : UNACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE (0x0000007B, ...)
Please reboot ...and so on

The bluescreen appears after Windows has started (from this
"unaccessible" boot device !)

Unfortunately, I found nothing comparable at Google or Microsoft. The
harddisk is OK (when I boot with other OS from CD (DR-DOS 7.0), I can
see everything on the disk).

I am using Win2K pro and ASUS K8V-X SE mainboard with integrated
SATA-Raid controller (but only one SATA-HDD connected), one extra
DVD-writer on IDE primary master channel. The system was running
properly for more than one year, without any errors.

When I'm trying to start the windows recovery console (from CD), an
error-message is displayed, that no HDD was found.
I tried to let make a .log-file during startup, but nothing was written
to disk, so I can't tell any more.

Formatting the hard-disk or trying to reinstall Windows was a possible
way, but I try to avoid both.

Any idea ?
