SP2 -Operating System Not Found
Hello.
I installed SP2 on my home computer last weekend. Rebooted a couple times after that - all seemed good. Turned the computer on last night, and now I am getting "Operating System Not Found". I tried to load the recovery software, but then I get the error "Unable to locate harddrive". Is it possible this is caused by SP2? And if so - is there anything I can do short of getting a new hard drive? Thank you! Carol |
