Today I was on my computer as normal, I heard the hard drive running for a very long time, but i had no processes going, so I went to restart my computer I got an error with these numbers
(stop 0x0000008E,0xc0000005,0x812c976F,0x8f8BB924,0x0000000).
I pressed F8 and went into safe mode, went to a previous restore date and that did not work. Then I went to last known good configuration, that also failed. So then I ran my windows vista hard drive image disc that i made when i first got the computer. (My computer came with windows installed already and no hard cd of vista). After that ran, It went to start up after it loaded and now I got a black screen with a winload.exe error. I can not get past this screen now.

What can I do? Everything I read says to go into different folders and files, but I cant even get past the black screen.

What might have caused this?

Also did I erase all my information by running the hard drive image disc?

{This is for a different Acer desktop, not the one listed in my information below}

You may have had errors on the hard drive. Which if the recovery process formatted the drive then it would have fixed the errors possibly. The only thing you can do now is to download and run recuva and do a deep scan on the system to recover any personal files its finds.

How can I download and run that program if I can't get past that black screen at all? How would I do that by using an other computer?
Also, this program would only be beneficial if I run it after I get the drive working, or will it work before I am able to fix it?

i think that you need to install new windows.....because it look like that your windows files are corrupted....try to format your C drive and install windows again....

After formatting the hard drive, would the hard drive image disc I have work, being I dont have a copy of windows since it came pre installed on the system?

I made a bootable disk with the recuva file. Now What are the commands to type in dos mod to run the file on the bootable disk?
 
You won't be able to run recuva like that. You will have to put the hard drive in another system and run recuva that way.
