HP System Repair Disc
Hello,
Have a HP desktop PC that is acting flaky (a small percentage of the time it hangs), but keeps generating msgs about the HD Imminent Failure. Also has corrupted some files I had.
I did run ChkDsk, and it came back with the same message, after several hours of checking.
So, I have backed up everything I could, but would at least try to fix if at all possible.
Guess some of the sectors are now bad.
Have a single CD that came with PC (about 3 yrs old now) that is labeled "HP System Repair Disc", W7, 64 Bit.
Would like to at least try it.
When opened, it has the following:
Files on the Disc:
Boot
Sources
Boot Mgr.
To Be Written To Disc:
Desktop
So, now what ? There is not text or Help file.
Is there anything herein that might correct the bad Sectors, or any other HD
problem that is software and not hardware related ?
If so, how do I use it, please ?
Anything else worth trying at this stage ?
Thanks,
Bob
