Depending on the mfgr of the drive, you should be able to boot off a floppy and run a utility to 'check' the drive for errors. WD has this and requires some users to run the util and report an error code before RMA... check with your drive mfgr for their policy. On Tue, 11 Jul 2000, Chris Wagner

You can try running fsck and badblocks to attempt to fix the errors. But I've never had luck with either of those tools on a drive that was dieing. If the errors remain, there's a 99% probability the drive is bad. At 11:54 PM 7/10/00 -0400, JoeCool wrote: >Hi, > >I'm getting some Input/Output err

Hello, I once tried a newer hard drive on an old motherboard. I think the hard drive was spinning down (power saving) and the motherboard treated it as an error. It may just be a bad drive. If that is the case, it will die in the next couple of days anyway. Best of luck. *** REPLY SE
