Computer hard drive problem

[dgessler]

Hello everyone,

My computer suddenly is giving me a disk error message when starting the computer. Windows XP doesn't load or anything, and when I try to put in the XP CD, XP can't recognize my hard drives at all.

Can anyone let me know what may be the problem?

Thanks,
Dan

No floppy is in. That's not the problem. I'm not that much a of a noob.
