6 days old x58 wont boot please help me

Please can some one help me.
I have an x58 system with an ssd drive.
Like i say its 6 days old and working perfectly up til yesterday.
I left the pc on for about 2 hours have not changed power/screen saver options.
Then when returning i noticed the blue light at the front flashing.
The screen was black on the monitor so when i clicked the mouse/keyboard and got nothing.
I eventually turned the pc off at the wall.
Then when i booted up again all i could get was the recovery software F11.
I thought it might be a software issue so i used the software pre installed to clean/destruct the ssd drive thinking it would leave me a clean os.
Thinking back now that was not a good idea.
Now when i boot it asks for the windows 7 cd which i insert and all i get now is
error status 0xc000000f
The drive is inaccessible.
I was so looking forward gettin this system now i`m gutted.
Please any advice would be welcome.

Have you tried booting from the windows 7 disc and doing a repair?

boot your computer into BIOS and set the DVD drive to first.

Then insert your Windows 7 DVD into the drive and reboot. When the computer displays a screen that reads "Press any key to boot from CD

Then follow the on-screen instructions to Repair your drive.

hope that helps, if not am sure someone on her can help

good luck

Whats SSDs are you using?

Did you install and Windows Updates post 6days?

Are your SSD configured in RAID?

Do you have any USB devices attached externally?

I suggest trying to get into safemode and within command prompt console type chkdsk /f /r and enter y for yes at the prompt. wait for it to finish, it may take a while.

Or repair using the Windows 7 CD.
Its the unclean shutdown you probably did from the power socket that corrupted Windows 7 maybe.

I think the mistake you made was by cleaning the SSD or removing. You should have just used Acronis and revert back to Scan's factory image when all was perfect.

What option did you select exactly?

Let me know how you get on.

Thanks for the replys
I booted from dvd drive with windows 7,
I have gone with a new install,
The repair thing did not work.
I have loaded drivers back all seems fine now.

I tried using Acronis but had no luck.

Just one thing not to sure about
I see my over clock profile in bios but not to sure how to activate it.
under tools
i see list of profiles
not to sure what i need to do ?

thanks again

Andy.

I have managed to use Acronis to revert back to original settings and go back to profile 2 oc.
I am well pleased now.

Looking at the settings the screen saver was set to 15 mins so i think that might be it. what do you think ?

thanks all

Yes Andy it could may have well be screen saver as you left it for 2hrs idle

I also know OC machines dont like certain hibernate mode settings also.

It would be good to include the full steps to your solution for future readers with this issue also

Always check your hardware also like monitor cabling connection which could have slightly become loose and given you black screen output.

Glad you got it sorted

Thanks Nzastudios
I feel a little bit annoyed.
Why do scan deliver system without documentation not to have screen saver, hibernation ect on ?
I took my system back to original settings image, yet screen saver is on for 15 mins.
I had loads of paper work but most important thing was not there.

Hi Andy

This should have been setup at the time the system was having its software install I will look into this for you tomorrow as the power saving features as detailed in my Hexus thread should have been set

We apologise for any inconvenience that this may have caused
