TrueCrypt - "Warning! Password locked: Fixed disk0" error message on boot.
When i start my laptop (Acer TravelMate 2410). after the starting memory check, the screen goes full black, and a message appears for about 3 seconds:
Warning! Password locked: Fixed disk0
and after that, disappears, and next message comes out:
Operating System Not Found
and all stops here.
Windows Xp was installed on it, before this came.
TrueCrypt cd (witch was made during the process of full encryption) is not working, not in restoring MBR, no even in decrypting my drive - completely useless.
Note: I detected some short of boot sector errors (i dont know the amount) on my drive before this happened.
Please, i would greatfully thank every comment, or suggestion, because my computer is unusable now. The HDD is a Samsung HDD, 160Gb. Other preferences: Acer TravelMate 2410 Notebook, 2 Gb RAM, 1500 Mhz Intel Celeron M processor.
