Re: Hdd keeps skipping?

is it your main drive? from a cmd prompt type chkdsk */r * is drive letter to scan if its main drive a rebbot and offline scan will be required. Back up first and now . With a bit of luck a bad setor will be found and marked and that will be all it is without luck the drive will die soon
