The PC of my cousin bug down. And its desktop has no icons and Drive E: has no files. But when you check your files thru Command Prompt the file exists. The error he encounter was :
" system has detected a problem with on or more installed IDE\SATA hardidsk"
Have you encounter this problem?

If you've tried chkdsk then, in command, prompt run chkdsk/e. On my 'puter it then allows for chkdsk to be set to run at start-up to fix the problems.

Yes and no, I encountered a similar problem my with my old laptop in which all myf iles were corrupted and I lost them, my desktop was completely blank and my harddrive had encountered an error. When we finally give up in trying to fix it ourselves, a friend of ours, which is excellent with computer, advised us that our computer had crashed and that he was able to save a few of the files, but not all. Hopefully that is not the case with you and if so, I hope that you had the files backed-up.

Sounds like a problem with your HDD.
Run a HDD utility and check the integrity of the disk.

Hi.... there are several possibilities. First, maybe hard disk drive has problems. Second,check your cable IDE/SATA. If it is because of the problem come from the cable. The cable should be replaced. Third, virus problem. Fourth, partition already corrupted.
