Here goes:

I shutdown my computer last night, (WIN2k PRO) which ws working very fine.

I tried booting this morning, then the Log-in dialogue box appears, the pc hangs, so I am forced to restart the computer.

After restarting, win2k pro loads about 75% (the blue bar during startup) and then the blue screen of death shows up. (STOP: Inaccessible Boot Device...)

I tried researching throughout the net but cant find one that works for my pc. I didn't install any new hardware or anything nor did i touch or move any of the hdisks. please help... ;c
