Hello Boggin, I downloaded the prog and unzipped and clicked on HDDScan exe but nothing happened.

Boggin:
I already have it in my Downloads folder and after opening the folder, just double click on the HDDScan - Application - but will dump what I have and then download it again to refresh my memory.

I'm back.

Right - clicked on the Download button and selected Save

Closed the web site and view Downloads box then went to my Downloads folder - clicked on the .zip - Open - clicked on HDDScan 3.3 - Extract.

Clicked on HDDScan File Folder - Open - then double clicked on HDDScan for Type Application (7th one down the list) then follow the prompts.

Click on the black S.M.A.R.T. button to produce its analysis similar to mine.

That is what I did but no joy. I did notice Avast icon rotate a few times but no resulting reason.

Boggin:
Try it in Safe Mode with Networking - Avast may not like it.

When I downloaded that program that Shane had linked, my Norton 360 didn't like that and popped up a window advising me to remove it but also with the choice to run it anyway - similar to what Windows Smart Screen Filter does sometimes.

Ok, Boggin, thanks for your help. I'm signing off now as have to be up early tomorrow. Thanks
