    You can repair HD's by a combination of chkdsk /r run from Windows or the DVD/Repair CD if necessary, and the maker's diag/repair full CD scan.

    Chkdsk repairs the file system, CD repair scan does surface repairs - they work in tandem and should be run together, and repeated after one finds errors to repair.

    i find it weird about this disk boot error bcoz my cos had the same problem, so i got a 500gb for him. his old hdd i took it home & testing the 320gb hdd. until today, that hdd is working on my pc. so how can it be that the hdd got bad sector, but when i'm using win 7, i never get any error.

    pls help me out here.

    now, the 500 gb is already giving the disk boot error. hopefully it doesn't attack my 1TB.
    My external HD works again on this PC. After replacing this PC's serial ATA cable, I did a full reformat of the OS and everything worked fine again. I had the external HD inserted while I was reformatting the OS.
