[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1577455, member: 56379"] No problems here...and not upset in any way.:) I have seen too many of these threads where someone has a bad internal storage device...and the thread keeps dragging on & dragging on, and dragging on. Like I mentioned...you can test until "blue in the face"...and if the internal storage device is bad...nothing will improve. And if it's a "partially dead" storage device...it will give you mixed messages. Sometimes good & sometimes bad. To do your own computer repair/troubleshooting...you need the proper tools: - external devices to boot a computer from - bootable OS material (bootable USB OS install sticks, bootable OS install disks, external HD with an OS installed on it, etc.). - Or known good parts to replace possible or definitely bad parts with. Good luck,:) - Nick [/QUOTE]
