nvidia boot agent

I'm getting this error sometime when I reboot. It says something about "Media test failure" and "disk boot failure, insert system disk and press enter..."

When it does this, the only way that I can get out of it is to power down completely and the boot up. If I restart from there, it keeps going back.

Any ideas?

if you have a floppy in the disk drive take it out.

EDIT:: it also may be a HD going bad

definitely not a floppy, I don't even have a drive hooked up right now. I just put the computer together last week, so I hope the hd's not bad already...

You might try a RAM test such as memtest86, of if you have two sticks of RAM try only using one, one may be bad. Did you install the SATA drivers before you installed windows.
