A 5 year old ps3 60 gig drive really isn't worth putting much time into. With that many errors I would just get another drive. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Home made OS windows 7 home premium 64/SP1 CPU Intel i7-960-3.2 @ 4.25 Motherboard ASUS P6X58D-E Memory KINGSTON KHX2000C9, Hyper X,12 GIGS with Corsair cooler Graphics Card MSI/Nvidia/460GTX-Cyclone 1GD5/OC Monitor(s) Displays DYNEX 40 IN.

As I have said, i use it to store unimportant files. i'm planning to keep using the 5 year old HDD until it dies or until I notice it makes my computer unstable/slow. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number Acer M802 OS Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit CPU Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Quad CPU Q8400 @ 2.66GHz (4 CPUs), ~2.7GH Motherboard MB.SCQ07.002 MB KIT G43 ICH10R HMII EUPLOT6 ECS R Memory 8GB DDR2 Graphics Card ATI Radeon HD 5770 1 GB GDDR5 Sound Card Realtek ALC 888s Monitor(s) Displays LG FLATRON 23" W2361V Screen Resolution 1920x1080 60hz PSU FSP Group 80 plus bronze 450-500 watts Case Midtower ATX Cooling fan Hard Drives Seagate Barracuda ST3750528AS 750 GB 7200 RPM

Hi,
It would close itself if you were running it from a CMD window which is not elevated, so yes that is normal. Try running the command from an elevated cmd window.
