Hi all,

I'm working on a XP machine. I think its slowness when installing apps (and also when its installation) is because of the HDD issue. Maybe there are bad sectors. I know that using C:\ drive properties -> tools, I can test the C: drive for bad sectors. But how to see the results!? It's wants me to restart the PC. Is there any log file after finishing of the test?
Is there any better way to find and solve the issue please?

The real problem is that, installing programs takes too (really too) much time to be installed. But the routine operations of the machine (opening installed programs, exploring in the Windows, etc) is almost fine.
I think the problem occurs only when I want to write on the HDD, for example, when installing an app which writes its files on the HDD.
