Need System Disk on Disk Boot Failure Error

“Disk Boot Failure” error message arises when you are trying to boot your computer with a disk that is not a bootable or doesn’t have installed with an operating system.

The worse scenario in this case is when your hard disk drive is broken. You need to purchase a new one and reformat your hard disk drive and install a new operating system.

By the way it just one of the reasons why Disk Boot Failure arise. Let me list down all the reasons and fixes of this problem.

Let’s start with mostly happened to computer users.

1. You have left a diskette in your floppy disk drive. Basically floppy disk drive is the default first boot device to the most of computers. When you inserted a floppy disk which is not yet formatted and doesn’t have a copy of the operating system and the disk is not bootable, you will encounter “Disk Boot Failure” error message.
2. You have left a CD or DVD in your optical drive. The same with the floppy drive. CD ROM or DVD ROM also able to read operating systems and able to boot on a bootable CD or DVD. Oftentimes we left our installer in our optical drive specially the last CD we have inserted on it. We all forgot to turn our hard disk drive as the primary boot device in the BIOS setup. We just left as is since our last installation. If we replace the CD on the optical drive with a disk that is not capable to boot the machine, what ever happens until we do not remove the disk on the optical drive, we will encountered the same Error.
3. You live your hard disk drive detached from the Motherboard. This one is funny but mostly happened especially the computer technician.
4. Hard disk drive is corrupted or no longer working. We don’t have any solution for this but to purchase a new one.
5. You haven’t installed your operating system in your computer. Installation is not a hard job. But sometimes because of our excitement we forgot to do the most important. Be sure that your operating system has been already installed before boot up.
6. Hard disk drives are disabled in BIOS setup. Your job here is to open the BIOS set-up and detect the hard drives that was installed to your computer then save the BIOS.

How to fix them?

• Check you’re floppy if there is an inserted Floppy Disk. If you’re found one, just pull out the disk and report your computer. Dos this also as what you do to check the floppy disk.
• Check the cables connecting from your Motherboard to your hard disk drive.
• Check the power supply if it is working or it has the right voltage output.
• Check your hard disk from error like bad sector, bad cluster, corrupted files etc. If error found try to recover your hard disk and operating system by the Built-In recovery features of Microsoft Windows Operating System.
• Reformat/reinstall your operating system.

Hello Dear,

Thanks for sharing your problem with us.

Dear the problem you told above has many reasons to take place.

You have to check here some components of your computer.

First make sure that all connectors attached to you're booting device (Hard Disk) are fixed well and not loose.

Some times usually power connector creates such problem when it became loose.

Then you have to check IDE or SATA cable which one is connecting your hard drive to the Motherboard.

And if these things are alright then repair your windows.

I hope it will help you a lot.

Thanks

The error Disk Boot Failure comes from various reasons. If you ever encounter this kind of error, read on below:

1. Check if the SMART drive reporting is on. To do this, go to your BIOS settings. If this is enabled, try to disable it and then try to run it for few days on a usual rebooting series to check if the Disk Boot Failure will occur. Self-Monitoring Analysis and Reporting Technology or SMART is an older way to detect if there is an issue with your hard disk. This feature is not always available on newer computers.

2. Also in BIOS settings, make sure that your computer recognizes the correct drive during startup. Reset your BIOS settings by pressing on the F10 key to restore the defaults. And then Save and Exit.

3. Check if there are any loose cables or failing IDE cables. Either IDE or SATA will give the same error.

4. Check if the hard disk is failing.

5. Have you recently inserted a non bootable disc or any USB on your computer?

6. If you connected a new hardware, try to remove it again and check if this is the cause of the issue. If it is, check on all the connections.
