Re: SMART CHECK

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.

Re: SMART CHECK

did you try the full erase option??? it should fix the problem... try that out before you get a new hard disk...

Re: SMART CHECK

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
