I've made recovery discs for Windows but I'm concerned they might not work - is there any way of checking them before I change the hard drive to make sure they were created successfully? Any info you can give would be gratefully received! Dell's own replacements are around 2-3 times the cost so I definitely want to find and order a replacement without going through them! I want to replace it like for like as it's a 7200rpm drive and I'm in the UK so I've been looking at UK suppliers how do I make sure the drive is compatible? I think you're right about going with Western Digital, but I'm not sure what the difference is between Scorpio/Caviar, blue/black etc. I think I'm basically at the point of replacing it & starting over - does that seem wise or a waste of money without trying any further avenues?Ĭoxchris - thanks for the replacement drive info. There was also no repair facility & I couldn't get SeaTools for DOS to load (Opcode errors) so can't use the repair facility that comes with that either.

I'm not sure where a full report of the errors found might be stored on my system though as there was no final report in the diagnostics program. I ran the Dell diagnostics & got several "IRQ did not set in time" errors. Thanks very much for your suggestions & advice.

I presume if this isn't a virus then transferring the files over has triggered a problem with the hard drive that perhaps might always have occurred once it had more stored on it. The hard drive is a Samsung HM640JJ, 620GB. I'm not sure whether I should be ordering a new hard drive or not? Is it possible for a virus etc to do this? I've backed up my files but don't know what to do next. Intel IAStorUI is also reporting that the hard drive is at risk. it's not trying to get me to buy anything to fix the problem. I've seen screenshots of malware-related warnings and mine doesn't quite look the same - there's also no suggested links to click on or anything, i.e. I'm now getting a hard drive failure warning for the internal hard drive in my laptop.
The service isn't starting despite still being set to automatic. I changed this and set it to automatic and restore points stayed for a while but then disappeared again following the error described below. When I looked into it Volume shadow copy service wasn't started and was set to manual. System restore has also been playing up, with restore points disappearing for no reason. I've since changed from AVG to Microsoft Security Essentials (all other antivirus now uninstalled) but scans with this & malwarebytes don't show anything up. Scans showed up a trojan which was removed successfully - trojan downloader ASX/Wimad.bp but from the description of this I don't think it can be what's been causing the problem. My computer kept freezing up and running slowly, so I guessed I may have copied an infection over from the external hard drive.

I couldn't find a fix for it so changed to the free version of AVG and uninstalled everything from McAfee except Security Scanner. At the time, McAfee stopped working and kept shutting down. I've been experiencing problems with my Dell XPS 15 laptop, running Windows 7, which conveniently came out of warranty in January About a month ago the connections on a separate external hard drive I use at work broke so I copied everything from it over onto my laptop using a SATA cable.
