Topic: Z-axis won't move! Help!

So towards the end of a rather large print last night I got an error in repietier host prompting me to reset the printer by entering m999 into gcode. Now whenever I boot up the printer in repietier host I'm able to move the Y and Z axis no problem, but as soon as I send any command that moves the Z axis it gives me the same error as before! Please help me! I've been trying to fix this all night -_-

Ok so i narrowed the problem to the heated printbed. In repitier host it reads as being around 290 degrees celcius when i first boot up the printer and everything is cold. Can anyone help point me in the right direction with that tidbit?
