re: Possibly failing hard drive Wednesday, November 4, 2009 at 4:23 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by MartinM (5135 messages posted) Well I wouldn't challenge the advice from the provider of the software ! If the results from the diagnostic tool say that my hard drive is failing, I back up my data and get a new hard drive and install windows again? Yes, exactly so. But don't delay backing up your data - the more you investigate the HDD, the sooner it will fail - if that's the cause.
