Why you got that error msg? System didn't properly load boot loader/system from your HDD? Why? There could be several reasons, but one the most worrisome is that your HDD (hard disk drive) may be dying. May, i'm not saying it will, although they all die it is just a matter of time. There is one free program that does decent job at identifying possible problems. It is called Crystal Disk Info or something similar. I'm writing this out of memory. Just be careful where you download it from, many free web sites add some potentially unwanted crap with free software. Luckily this program can be obtained and run as 'portable app' - no installation needed. Programs like this are the best and can be run from USB memory stick. Go to portableapps.com and download it from there and you should get clean version of program. That program is not magician, can't tell you 100% if you HDD is dying. But if you get any warning from it, I would look into getting me a new one. And make sure you have a backup of everything in case it does die. portableapps.com Ahh found it for you: portableapps.com After you run the test you want to see blue good color on all your disk drives.
