No trouble, Mack. We're here to help.

Back up any valued data, pronto! Be prudent about what you transfer, though, as you don't want to carry over the present infection to the new HDD. You may want to post a new HJT log in a new thread when you get the drive situation settled, just to be certain.

Nothing worse than a failing HDD, for me. Good thinking to get the diagnostic tool from the manufacturer.

Good luck.
