Are there any USB drives plugged in or discs in the disc drive? If there is, take them out and then try. If not, then there's something wrong with the installation or hard drive. Try reinstalling the operating system first.

OH Sheitttt your laptops HDD is fried... Disk error. Had it myself ages ago, it means the BIOS (motherboard) cannout access the MBR properly, (in most cases) You can try to repair the mbr and more, but if there are ANY noises that sound unusual when it boots up? its screwed. if there are any cds/dvds or usbs remove them and then reboot. if not then the HDD is shot...
