disk read error
Hi!
Yes, basically what heppened was, my laptop froze. I turned it off, and then on, 'VAIO' logo showed and then nothing, just black screen. Turned it off/on couple of times and then ' A disk read error occurred, press ctrl+alt+Del' message showed.
Been reading around and it seems that HDD is gone.. Last year I sent my Vaio to warranty repair, it stated 'HDD boot fail'. I am out of warranty, but as HDD was changed once, will they fix it for free or I'll have to pay?
I have devided HDD in half, so is there any chance of getting files back?
If this helps, then laptop is being used daily.
Thanks,
hunker7

Most probably you will need to pay for it. Sometimes, this can be just a cause of a loose connection from the HDD to the motherboard.
If you are confident enough, you can probably try to do a simple "reseat".
