reboot and select proper boot device asus vista 64 bit

[icemen786]

Hey peepz

need some help. My pc has stopped working out the blue. when starting up i'm getting the above error and the pc is not booting up. I have a asus motherboard running vista 64 bit ultimate. I don't have a recovery disk. I have tried to boot up in safe mode but when I press the f8 key it only give me the option to pick which drive to load from but still get the same error what ever I pick, don't get the boot in safe mode option. checked the bios and the hard is showing but just doesn't want to boot up. I have tried change the sata cables to the hard drive but no joy. don't know what else to try.
any help would be appreciated.

open up ur pc and clean it

unplug the ram the hdd & gfx card if u have 1 clean the slots then plug it all back together n test it

if no luck

boot up the hirens disc n choose xp boot and see if u can see ur C drive when loaded in
