The IDE ribbon is the cable that attaches the hard drive to the motherboard
(IDE hard drives, not SATA ones). This cable is very low cost and usually
gets damaged. Even some manufacturers use cables of a low quality. More over
a bad IDE cable is a source of several problems. You can try this, it won't
hurt your machine.

Could you please explain why doing this, and what will it change? Because
if
it's on the hard drive your talking about, this is only half a year old.

Hi, I tried booting the computer and I got the message about Reboot and
select proper boot device.....

Then when I pressed enter, I got to Disk read error, press ctrl alt del
to
restart. After it restarts, I get the long message again and then I
press
enter, and I get in.

This was in Event Viewer:
