with a solid state drive):
1. Turn on the computer
2. Press and hold Alt + F10
3. Click on Restore System to Factory Default
4. Ensure the netbook is plugged into AC power instead of running off the battery and click OK
* This will return your netbook to the condition it was in from the manufacturer.

Remove any 3.5" diskette from the A: drive.
Remove any CD from the CD/DVD drive.
Reboot.
If you still have the problem, then borrow a Windows XP disk.
Boot from it. Choose "repair", not "install".
If the disk-drive is "detected", then "repair" will attempt to fix any file-system errors.
If *NO* disk-drive is detected, your disk-drive has "died".
