In my experience, this usually means that the master boot record is corrupt. I don't know of a way out of this other than to wipe everything with FDISK using the MBR option.

To save your data, you can put the HDD into a USB enclosure and stream it off using another PC.

I hope that the other geniuses on this forum give you other suggestions before you have to take this drastic step, like re-seating all your PCI cards and memory.

Let us know.
