When I do a search on Aspire One all I find are ones made by Acer. Wiki has a page dedicated to it but there are so many different models it would help if you could lets us know which one you have.

Asus Aspire One Windows 7 Starter.
Hi all,
my grandaughter (9) brought her netbook to me because it wouldn't boot. The message was,
Windows failed to start etc insert discs etc there are none, status 0xc000000f.
The boot selection failed because a required device is not accessible.
So I tried the repair my computer option no go.
Can't F8 into any mode so I hit Alt+F10 at boot and got to recovery console.
This failed at 44% with an error code 0x45d.
(winapplyimage cannot apply image)
Now back to the status 0xc000000f code.
I have checked boot order ok. Linux won't run just a quick flash on the screen.
I am not a newbie but not a tech, so any ideas? Mbr corrupt? Failing disc? Missing file?
TIA for any help.
