Hi all,
I tried to search for this using the search field but couldn't find anything so I am posting this problem with hopes for a solution.
Essentially, once a month my hard drive corrupts and even after using Disk Utility via the Leopard disc, has to be restored via Time Machine.
This usually occurs after I have been carrying it around in a backpack for several hours during shoots.
From what I have read on the forums here, it is indicative of a failing hard drive and needs to be replaced.
But my issue is I have a Bootcamp partition with Windows 7 that runs perfectly fine during all this. It has been a life saver as I can transfer files via Windows and not lose any important information.
I was just wondering if a failing hard drive would still be able to boot to Windows. And if not, I was hoping for a possible solution to my problem.
Thanks for reading this.
Best,
Vinh
