A friend of mine not on these lists just tried to start his computer and got a "disk read error" or "read disk error". Can you please tell me what that means and what if anything he can do about it? Apparently, it says to press control-alt-delete to restart and tries to go to the start screen, but nothing happens. Does this mean his disk drive has crashed? Any explanation would be appreciated. Thank you.
