wassup !!
i guess that not so goood for you. anyways...
listen up:
the problem you have is - a phisical connection between a device on your computer that is probably not plug & play (somthing like a Hard-Drive or a card) has terminated. since i don't know what you could have possibly done to cause that. (it could be caused by changing the I/O settings from the "Device Manager" or phisically damaging your mainboard (or motherboard). think back carefully about what you may have done to cause it. and try entering the computer from "Safe Mode" to change it back if it is revesable.
GOOD LUCK !!!
