Toshiba Satellite C655D / Windows 7... Upon powerup, gets message "Error has occurred, Error F3-F100-0010, Press OK to turn off." Pressing OK powers off. This happens EVERY power cycle. Powerup goes like this: Power on, can hear drive engage, Black Windows screen loads with grey bar at bottom moving left to right, then at Microsoft copyright screen it loads three bars then goes black, blue circle spins a few seconds, then error screen. Used to be random, now constant. Unable to get to any safe mode. Can get to BIOS / BOOT screen (F12) but nothing there to diagnose or fix problem. Tried removing / reinserting HD with no success. Have no restore or reinstall disc for
Windows. I suspect dead HD but don't know how to confirm this is the problem. Is there anything I can do?
