I was cleaning around my computer while it was running and moved it slightly. Now after bios issues and testing I have a failed hard drive with a failure ID PGBVB1-0008RU-9XJ16K-608A03. I get that the hdd is toast. But since I can't look up the pc diags from the web address they list I need help to make sure I repair this correctly. I do not have another desktop. I am a TOTAL NOVICE. Type slowly please....lol thanks for any help!

Does the code show anything else is toast? I ran separate component tests and the other 2 that ran came back fine. But I just want to make sure when I replace the drive that there isn't another issue. (That can be identified by the code I have that is. And thank you for your rapid response. One day off a week and this is going to consume most of it. Don't want it to drag out because I didn't ask. Thanks again Huffer!

Well actually that failure Code means a bad checksum which could be the BIOS chip meaning the motherboard.
This is not good
I thought you were telling me this came up on a hard drive test. It had to come up with the general hardware test, not just the hard drive.
