what does this message mean

What does it mean when it says you have a HARD Drive problem....?

If you wipe off XP and reinstall Vista will this help eliminate any Hard Drive
problems.

No. And WHAT says you have a hard drive problem? What is the exact message and how is it generated?

If his experience in "Beginner" then how the *censored* is he supposed to know how it's generated? People with not many experience of computers will not understand that.

Don't like to know the truth? Thought not,

Do not ignore the post above. I am telling the truth am i not? Are you advanced with computers?

[Salmon Trout]

wing seeker, you may indeed ignore (the rather inaptly named) helper4789's posts in this thread. When Allan asked "how is it generated?", he (very obviously) meant "what sort of thing are you doing when it appears?"

Code: [Select]

If you wipe off XP and reinstall Vista will this help eliminate any Hard Drive
problems. 
If you have a faulty hard drive, it will stay faulty whatever operating system you install.

All I KNOW is that ALLEN has helped me a few times and NEVER been wrong.


              Good luck;Eric.

That's not a blanket assessment. Apparently people who are new to computers also suck at the english language.


EDIT: </sarcasm>

[Helper4789]

THAT is a matter of opinion.

Back again? And resurrecting a thread from February? Perfect.
