The_Decryptor Veteran Posted December 1, 2004 Veteran Share Posted December 1, 2004 do a scandisk (try to repair) and backup quickly, your disk MIGHT be dying (MIGHT) Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/251636-worrying-event-viewer-errors/#findComment-585024511 Share on other sites More sharing options...
I8PP Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 CHKDSK D: /R immediately (I assume it is D:\ since it's harddisk1). And maybe look into investing in a new drive before it passes on.

Disk 0 is the primary. Partitions/Volumes start as 1, all the rest start at 0.

OPaul Posted December 1, 2004 Share Posted December 1, 2004 It's not dieing, it just has a bad block... chkdsk will mark the block "bad" and everything will be fine.
