Fixing up a co-workers lab-top because she was complaining it was to slow. So I did the usual troubleshooting spyware(she never ever connected to the net with it though), defrag, then scandisk. Scandisk found some errors and tried to correct them. After awhile I was getting errors while in windows that point to a corrupted Master File Table. No biggie I say I just format and reinstall since there was not much to back-up. So all goes well till I start installing programs for her then a window pops-up saying there was delayed-write failure. So know I think there something physically wrong with the drive. Can anyone point to HDD repair tool that may help.
