i have this problem aswell
clicked dont show this again and it was gone for a while (about a month)

today i tried to install windows and a message popped up at the drive selection:
''Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The disk may fail soon. If other hard disks are available, install Windows to another location.''

dunno what i should do now, have ~2 yrs warranty left btw, would i get a replacement? :\

Straight to RMA

sry OP, didnt want to open another thread regarding the same problem so am posting on yours

and pls suggest what i should do to get the replacement?
bought the drive from comtrade btw

[BFG9000]

Download "Hiren's Boot CD" and then burn it on to a CD, boot from it, choose to run the Older dos programs from the menu, and if you've your data backed up, do a low level format from one of the many HDD Tools available, it might be worth a gamble, but since you've warranty, better you get it replaced.
