I did finish the Scan and there were 57 errors.
I don't know if I will even use my laptop anymore until I get a new Hard Drive.

I didn't try the Erase thing because I am not comfortable downloading software off bittorrent. do you have this program how large of a file is it. if its a small program I'll feel more comfortable then if its a FULL CD 700MB or FULL DVD 4.7/8.5GB.

Allot of the Time the Free Version is FULL all it takes is a Product KEY to unlock the PRO Features.
If I just need a Key then I shouldn't have to install a Bit Torrent program to get one.
I just downloaded the Free Version of HD TUNE and I can't see any place to put a Key so The Pro Version is a Different executable
