Factory restore from recovery disks HELP error 0xc000000e

Hi Folks,

After 4 years I decided to restore my Dell Inspiron 5110 to factory setting as it started running slow and I wanted to clear all the *** from over the years.

I have saved all pics, music and documents to external Hard Drive.

The recovery disks take me through Windows setup (windows 7 home premium dell version) and it reboots into operating system fine.  However, when I try to install updates etc. and reboot manually I get this

WINDOWS BOOT MANAGER

Failed to start,....

1. Insert your windows installation disk

2. choose language

3. click repair computer

Status: 0xc000000e

Info: The boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible.

I have done thorough HD diagnostics through F12 function, after 4hrs or so it said passed ok.

Despite trying the recovery three or 4 times I keep getting this error when I try to manually reboot or turn on the computer.  To be clear it reboots twice fine as part of recovery process?

I am now in the operating sytsem and do not want to recover again,...

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to correct this?  PLEASE ;-)
