Help! I keep getting "A Disk Drive Error Occured"

I really hope someone can help me with this, I turned on my laptop today and no matter what I do I keep getting a blank screen saying "A Disk Drive Error Occured please press CTRL+ALT+DEL to restart. I tried this numerous times but nothing happend. I took the computer back to where I bought it but they couldn't do anything for it so I tried calling Toshiba but got nowhere. I don't have the money to just replace it and it looks like nobody wants to honor the warrenty.
I have a Toshiba Satellite C655-S5512. I have had it since February this year and it always worked perfectly for me. I have no idea how this happend and I have lost all hope of it getting fixed.
My last resort is restoring it back to factury settings but I tried the one restore that kept all files. It had an error so my last chance is doing a complete factory restore.
If anyone has any useful advice or tips please let me know right away! This is the laptop I use for school work and I need it to work as soon as possible!

What do you mean that you got nowhere when eyou contact Toshiba customer support? What did they tell you?

    These ones are typically caused by underlying problems on the PC that also often cause Windows Updates to fail to install. If we can fix the Windows Update trouble, we can usually get the iTunes trouble cleaned up en passant.
    Go into your Windows update and try to check for new updates. If updates install, stock up on the ones you're behind on, restarting the PC if requested to do so. After the restart, try installing iTunes again. Does it go through this time for you?
    If windows updates fail to install, go into your Update History and doubleclick the failures. What alphanumeric codes appear for you? (For example, 8007000B.)

    First, confirm that ActiveX Filtering is configured to allow Flash content:

    Internet Explorer 11 introduces a number of changes both to how the browser identifies itself to remote web servers, and to how it processes JavaScript intended to target behaviors specific to Internet Explorer. Unfortunately, this means that content on some sites will be broken until the content provider changes their site to conform to the new development approach required by modern versions of IE.
    You can try to work around these issues by using Compatibility View:

    If that is too inconvenient, using Google Chrome may be a preferable alternative.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    This sometimes resolved by unplugging the Apple TV for a few moments and trying again, others have found restarting the router may help. Another reason that message can occur is when the download speed is extremely slow, have you tested your Internet download speed with speediest.net.

    First, try a system reset on the iPod.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If that doesn't work, reset the Apple TV.  I'm not at mine right now and I'm talking from memory but the reset is somewhere in the Settings menu.

  • Purchased Light Room 5, installed, registered .. but keep getting this screen "An error occurred when attempting to change modules. ... OK" ?? WTF? ?

    Installed Light Room 5.2 from Disc on my mac os x (latest, updated version)
    But keep getting this "An error occurred when attempting to change modules.. OK" no other options/selection and of course if I click OK ... it crashed out ...
    Can anyone help?
    For such a big company .. there isn't any chat option to get to someone to talk to  !!!

    Just because you are the only user on the computer doesn't mean you are the administrator.
    Also, the fact that you are being asked to re-enter your serial number each time you start means that it is not being remembered because something is either preventing it from being written to you disk or (less likely) something is erasing it. This does suggest that you lack certain permissions to make changes to your computer. Not only to save your serial number, but to have access to the Lightroom files needed to change modules (they are just plug-ins within Lightroom).
    Try creating a new user account and run Lightroom from there (making sure that it is part of the Administrator group).

  • I cannot apply transitions, I keep getting this:An Unknown Error Occurred

    When I try to apply a transition, I get this message: +"An Unknown Error Occurred+
    +You may be able to continue without any problems. You may also wish to save, quit, and re-launch iMovie HD."+ I did so. Several times. I even saved as a new project. I even shut down and booted from my install disk and ran Disk Utility, repaired permissions and repaired disk. No problems.
    When I try to apply a Video FX, like Fast/Slow/Reverse, the clip shows the usual red line underneath but it never completes. It stays red.
    Here's my best guess: The common denominator here is a video clip I imported...not from my camera. It was widescreen, or 16:9, or to be specific, 640x272. I wanted it to match the rest of my movie so I used QT Pro to change it to 640x480. Then I used someone's suggestion to drag that into the iMovie's Package Contents Media folder. It worked. That is, when I reopened my iMovie project, that clip played at 4:3 ratio. Beautiful. And that's the only thing I can think of that could be causing this problem.
    Any help, please. I am wasting so much time fooling with this.

    In addition to the above maintenance, you should also delete preferences by closing down iMovie and trashing the file named com.apple.iMovie.plist located in User (the house icon)/Library/Preferences. On relaunch, iMovie will creat a new .plist file to replace the one that you deleted. Often that simple procedure will solve problems like yours.
    Additionally, check to make sure that you have sufficient disk space on your start up disk for iMovie to function efficiently. 20GB to 25GB is frequently recommended by users of this forum.
    Make sure that your iLife programs are all up to date, particularly Quicktime.
    Sometimes 3rd party or Quicktime plugins can conflict with iMovie and cause problems. If you have such plug-ins, temporarily disable them by moving them to a different folder.
    You also could try opening your project in a different user and see if perhaps the conflict is specific to your user ID.
