It was working fine since last week...then it froze up on me & I shut it down (just by holding down the power button). I turned it back on & it came up w/a black screen w/a lot of codes & at the bottom saying the "Operating system not found".

It's a Acer Travelmate 4200...I got in Dec. 07 & have taken really good care of it...

Any ideas?
 
It means it cannot read the disk drive. Try going into the bios, at startup, and reset to factory defaults. If that doesn't do the trick, take it to the shop.
 
That means that your pc got so annoyed with itself that it deleted itself so u would get a mac. LOL

It means that the disk is probably corrupted, or scratched, you may need to bring it to a specialist
 
Means your os is corrupted hold alt and hit f10 repeatedly at the Acer screen to bring up repair.
