Usually that message is caused by the system (BIOS) not seeing the boot drive at startup. Like if you forgot to plug in the IDE cable or you try to boot to a drive without an OS on it.
If its intermittent like yours then I would verify the power cable and IDE cable are all plugged in securely to the hard drive and the motherboard. And check the BIOS to make sure it is recognizing the drive properly.
