MBR with bad sectors
Hi all,
i have read a lot of posts regarding fixing the MBR. I dont have a bootable CD..
my laptop, gigabyte Q1500m, only boots in safe mode, after pressing F8. the normal boot takes me to a windows 'reparing error' screen, and after sometime it says that this error cannot be fixed. if this screen does not appear during the second boot, i get the BSOD, does a memory dump, then shuts down.
after a CHKDSK is run, there are 8KB found in bad sectors. my friend said these
sectors are where the MBR is kept..bad one!
I have played around with mbrfix, but cant seem to fix or move or re-create the
MBR. (i've tried mbrfix /drive 0...etc, it says fixed, but it's not fixed...same issues)
anyone help? MUCH APPRECIATED!!
