Hello.



I am fixing a client's old Dell Optiplex PC with updated Windows 2000

SP4. Its event logs showed a bunch of "The device,

\Device\Harddisk0\DR0, has a bad block." like:

Ironically, this started after uninstalling NAV CE and rebooting! In

W2K's cmd.exe, I did a long chkdsk /r /f c:, rebooted, chkdsk'ed a long

time, and then back to Windows. However, I still got some errors as

shown in the event logs:

What's up? Bad sectors looked scary. I wonder if the drive is failing so

I ran the latest smartctl's long test and checked its results:

Those errors look bad. I also realized that this chkdsk was on a FAT

(not NTFS) and tiny. So I checked Disk Management and saw a no-letter

drive before C: --

http://img243.imageshack.us/img243/4301/diskmanagement.jpg ... I can't

see what is in this tiny partition. :(



I did another chkdsk on C:. I saw no problems this time in the event

logs. Weird.



Is the drive failing from the SMART and symptoms? Thank you in advance. :(

Just because two events follow each other does not necessarily mean that the

first caused the second. I would download and run the diagnostic tool that

the hard disk manufacturer makes available on his home site.
