So I ran a diagnostic test called "Western Digital Data LifeGuard Diagnostics" and it found some bad sectors so then I clicked repair and this is the result ;Attachment 267223
Unfortunately the Western Digital website provides one diagnostic test for the hard drive. Source:http://support.wdc.com/product/downl...id=702&lang=en
well yeah, your laptop drive is pretty much unusable
if you disconnect the laptop drive, can you boot from the other drive?
Yeah my other 500gb hard drive isn't corrupted. I'm using it right now to write this reply.
x BlueRobot, I also tried the Disk Check but ; Attachment 267235 but that didn't help either. I had to exclude step 11 because the drive needs to be booted in order to schedule the next disk check.

Also I tried this : Attachment 267284
It will be a hard bad sector, these can't be repaired, it's best to backup all the data on the corrupted hard-drive, and then transfer it to the hard-drive which works.
