Inaccessible Boot Device

I was working on my computer, Windows 2000 Pro. - I was moving my foot under the desk and accidentally switched off the surge protector.

I turned the protector back on and restarted my computer. I get a royal blue screen that says Stop Error.... "Inaccessible Boot Device"

None of the F8 options work for restart, they all say the same thing. I really don't want to have to reformat... Can someone please help ASAP?

Thanks!

You need to run chkdsk /p and fixboot from the recovery console.
