Hi, i tried to run the tests but my laptop won't stay working long enough for the long generic test.
The short one came out with a pass.
Anything else i can do?

What happens when you are running the long generic test?

There is a DOS version of the test. That DOS version will run outside of windows by booting to the test directly. Give it a try?

The test shows up in red and says failed btw after some 5 minutes...

Believe it.

Your hard disc is failing.

Still, run the long generic using Seatools for DOS and attempt the repair after the end of the test. If the dis is repaired there, it will give you some more days to copy your files elsewhere. But it the repaid does not work, get a new disc.

Replacing the HDD would be enough.
