Is my hard drive dying? [Solved]

Thanks, what about the setting for 'Enable System Monitoring" and "Enable Active Monitoring" Do you uncheck those? I notice that it is always running in the task bar.

Actually, they were the ones I was looking for but thought they applied to another program I have installed - memory isn't what it was :cheesy:
Yes, uncheck those and that will keep it dormant until you want to run it.

Hi, Boggins,
the wmic command list will give the instant status and information of the system very quickly. It is only used by advance users, because, there is no going back on any command. I mean, if the action is performed then there is no reverse for it.
But i took this command to get disk status, to easily find the status of the hard disk. The link is given below for the users of this forum.
