There's certainly no reason for me to change from W7 until I  have to replace a computer. Regular computer backups and judicious use of Windows Repair AIO has kept me going nicely so far!

Hi, sorry for late coming to the topic. My hard disk supposedly failed. i thought that was freeze of mouse at first. But , it is total computer freeze.
                  tried then resorted to format c: and reinstall.
                   While the first boot of install was successful, the second failed with motherboard logo, no moving further. I tried but could not succeed . the bios does not show the hard drive in usual sata 0 port. I tried to unplug and replug the pata cable, a wide tape and tried boot.  Now the lboooogo passed but no boot to hard drive.
                        first it was shown as a: error, i corrected it. Then it shows reboot and select device error.
                Would anybody give a clue of how to overcome this error. Is it a total hdd failure. please
                i am sending this reply from my laptop.
                           is there any free tool. I tried seagate tool, but it would not boot thro cd drive. i used imgburn to burn the iso.
                      i know that my hdd is healthy, and there is no chance to fail. i checked the ram and it is showing. i changed the mobo battery also. please give me link to tool

I'm not really into the hardware of things but is the HDD set to AHCI in the BIOS ?

A Hiren's Boot Disk has all of the tools on it that you are likely need, including repairing the MBR.

After you have downloaded the .zip you need to extract it and point ImgBurn to it.

Check the sata cable is secured/ swap out the cable for a different one, they can fail. The pata wide ribbon is presumably for a DVD/CD ROM drive.

hi, boggins and samson, thanks for the tips.
             i could not burn the image in my old laptop, which nero and imgburn would not allow to burn. Imgburn burns,but the image could notbe located. I tried with verify and it failed with layouts not match error. I do not know, how to fix it.the exact match is layouts do not match error.
            Nero could not also allow the burn with verify error.
regarding samson tip, the wide tape is the one that i have. It is a old model hdd by seagate, pata tape. i unplugged and thought i correctly plugged , but do not know, exact procedure. I thought that it also has a way of plugging. please do say how,  i know that blue tothe mother board and black to hdd. But is there any side specific to plug . i miss something here. sata cable could be plugged only one way. but i do not know about  pata tape.could it fix anyway or is there any particular method.
i could try if i could burn  the image. it is cd rw. firtst i noticed two cd drives shown one is magic iso. I removed it and then tried but could not succeed
