can you re-install the OS ...see if that helps


do you know who makes your hard drive Western Digital, Seagat, maxtor all have great diags tools...go to the appropiate site and download what you need under support...run it

www.ontrack.com has genric test suite that does a decent job

try it out!!

Steve I belive I replied in your other Post....

How did you make out with the failing drive....

when you boot the system watch the start up screen...it shoudl tell you what drive you have

Duce usally I have you back..... but as being a HP warranty provider...the cheap HP's have HD problems...you get what you pay for but Vectra and Kayaks are decent machines...worth the price although alot more then a Brio and a Pavillion....lets hope the compaq merger doesnt ruin it all

How do I put this ............YUP!!

In all fairness.....chances are it decent since you made it a year....its just cheaper parts go into your system then a Kayak or Vectra
