My laptop started freezing after 2-3 minutes after startup regardless of what I do. I couldn't restore to a previous state because the computer would freeze up before I get a chance to. I tried booting up in safe mode but it gets stopped at crcdisk.sys
I went into diagnostics and ran the smart scan.
The following errors were documented:
Smart Long Self Test Failed
0F00:075D
MSG: IDE device failed
the self test failed the read portion of the test
Read Test Failed
0F00:0244
MSG: Block 157355265
Uncorrectable data error or media is write protected
Verify Test Failed
0F00:1A44
MSG: Block 157355266
Uncorrectable data error or media is write protected
Before I completely scrap my HD, can anybody diagnose what is specifically wrong with my laptop? Is there any way to recover what I have on the HD and back it up first? Are there any more tests I should do to further confirm the results?
Thanks
