• Laptop is bitching about a HDD failure.
    4 replies, posted
So all I've done to this laptop is install Windows 7 and copied over a few videos from my network. From nowhere I get a stupid little popup telling me that there's something wrong with the hard drive, asking me whether I would like to ignore the popup or backup my files. I ignored it and did a restart to see if it would run Chkdsk, which It did untill it bitched again. It told me some bullshit and that I should do a system restore. I've not installed any new programs or drivers so I don't see why I would need to do that. What should I do to get this thing usable within an hour? (I'm heading to the airport in around 2 hours).
it'd help if you actually posted what the prompt said instead of just saying it was bitching at you.

We all know windows bitches at you for every reason known to man. So I'm just going to suggest a defrag since we don't actually know whats going on here.

The next time it bitches at you, screenshot the bitching and post it.
