I expect you will get the same answer on the other forum you posted it to - Tom's Hardware - which is the better place for this discussion.

It is the result of an unclean shutdown. If you can access the panel Add Remove hardware then click upon it and then follow what it says. But if the OS does not load you can't do it and would need a bootable medium. I have been trying to see whether it can be done without a boot disc but so far no go. You can also download Knoppix and start your computer with it and see if you can find the needed panel.
