Basically, this means your hard drive will need to be replaced.

Hi,
this is either a faulty dvd drive error message, or you have missing system files on the hard-drive.
The computer is asking you for the ( Media-Software Disk ) that is missing, and is required to start the computer.
Try putting your restore cd, or operating system in the dvd drive when booting the computer.

You need to take it in for warranty service. The hard drive and possibly motherboard have failed.

It's flashing because it's trying to load via the hard drive.
What have you tried so far?
Safe Mode, boot cd, etc?
