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 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disk 0 is the primary. Partitions/Volumes start as 1, all the rest start at 0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
