If this was the test for the hard drive, I would replace the hard drive with a new one, then use recovery discs to re-install Windows.

Oh man. What a fool. The windows setup was smooth at the beginning. Later, after auto restart, it appeared error message saying what "icopanic" ? And required to reinstall the windows. I have been restarting and restarting with recovery cd 1. Cannot run from hard disk anymore and stop at 16%. Oh my god....should i just send to the shop? A bit tired now. Regards, Lee

Yes something more serious may be wrong with it, it needs a professional diagnosis.
