WoW / MS DL touble : /

str8cravka · 10-26-2009, 08:30 PM

So i just bought this HP laptop like two months ago, and about a month ago, i started having trouble with my wireless internet. I ran a scandisk in CMD and that fixed it. Then about two weeks ago I logged onto my computor and WoW suddenly wasn't there. When ever i tried to redownload Wow it would say an error, and warn C:drive is either corrupt or scratched. So i did a factory restart, to no avail, now i have no music : /. Over like the last week I have ran, anti virus checks, disk frags, and scandisks on restart and in CMD. Still isn't working. So i gave up on Wow on my laptop decided to only play it on my desk top. And tonight I tried to download Maplestory on my laptop and it had basically the same error message except worded differently... the reason i posted on the game DL section was because i can DL itunes / limewire / ventrilo / MSN ect ect, fine only games give me this problem.

Thankyou for your help in advance, sorry for the wall of text

2 months in you should have plenty of warranty left. Get the HDD replaced.
