Lets run the tests on the HDD first, then tackle the latter.
Okay, so it passed the short test but when doing the long test on 13% progress small text that is barely readable shows up on the top of screen, only part I can read is "thank you for using".. and when I move tge cursor the screen freezes and the computer makes a loud high pitched noise.
So I did it again and this time it happened on 55%. I'll try it again, but I dont know whether it will be able to finish.
That is not a good sign, do you have a spear HDD to test with whether this occurs again with a different one?
Yes, does it just have to be the same os for the same cd to work?
The same CD is enough, since you're running the tool from a CD-drive in a DOS environment
the OS has nothing to do with it.
So I let it try that one more time and this time it didn't crash.. and it also passed.
Passed again..:/
Didn't fix the problems unfortunately.
