Hello!
So i have a co-workers laptop that i need to repair, so i started it up and it was extremly slow, it runs on windows 7.
and as there was nothing on it that needed to be saved i did reinstall windows on it and that too was really slow, and it had many problems to login windows while installing, where it is prepering the desktop it restarted about 5 times and it had many errors while prepering internet explor etc.
So i just left it since it was late and started it up next day and now it did boot into windows but it is really slow.
but i cant open anything like ie to downloaded programs etc i get a error, so i moved the programs i needed to check the harddrive etc but i cant install anything either only errors.
i dont remember the errors exact since i took out the harddrive and puted it in sata to usb and connected it to my own computer.
and i did run crystalDiskInfo on it and the harddrives health status is caution because of rellocated sectors and current pending sectors.
And the hdd has 4 driver letters assignet its puted up in 4 partions G,H,I,J and one of them is the system restore/backup point so its 100mb the other is 200mb and one 25gb.
its been used 2623 hours and 2000 power on counts.
So i would like to delete the partions and totaly format the harddrive so its just assigned 1 driver letter and then check if it has many bad sectors still.
The laptop it self has 4gb of ram a dual core amd cpu wich is pretty weak, and it has overheated too as it did once too me over 90 degrees celcius and shutdown and idk how many times before it have had that problems but i cleaned the fans and sink and now its in ok, so idk if the cpu or so is damaged.
but if it is the harddrive i will see if i think its worth to get a new harddrive for it or if the laptop is in too bad shape afterall.
