I have Run ChrystalDisk INFO Utility on Aspire Acer Laptop
and the result was: Caution
05.Reallocated Sectors Count
C5.Current Pending Sector Count 9
Would this be of any significance to the Hard Drive ?
I ran CHKDSK which says there are no problems and even did a scan for and recovery of bad sectors it found 4 Bad which it fixed.
but on using CyrstalDiskINFO It still has a Caution alert with the same problems.I do however have a C drive and D drive and the D drive is nearly full because of a recent crash so
I purchased an OEM Windows 7 which i installed on the C Drive and still have all the Old D drive Partition with files info etc on which is 58.5GB and freespace of 5.87GB this could be where the problem is maybe As i can access files and photos there, but i cannot boot from there as it all freezes up and shows the old desktop icons which i find strange ? C Drive works Fine. I have also used Hard Disk Sentinel Utility the following advice
*Performance Excellent 100% *Health 90% There are 3 Bad sectors on disk surface the contents of theses sectors were moved to spare area .There are 9 weak sectors on disk surface .They maybe remapped anytime in the later use of the disk.At this point warranty replacement of the disk is not possible.Only if the health drops further .NO Actions Required. Estimated remaining lifetime more than 1000 hrs
I would be grateful for some ideas on the best thing to do please
