A client of mine just had this problem a couple weeks ago. This is what i did to 
fix it....  Slave the drive in another machine and download the drive makers disk 
diagnostic utility and run it on the drive.  It should find an error or errors and 
fix them allowing your drive to boot up properly in the original syste.
