run DEBAN its a wiping tool that completely wipes your hard beyond recovery also used by the department of defence and run a few passes and reinstall windows for a fresh new start and stay away from the rubbish such as illegal downloads, porn,torrents etc

Yes, I've done a giant un-installation and removal of programs i don't need and i've checked the temps of everything in the system.

As I've also said I'm waiting until I get a chance to back up my data before I do a format and fresh install.

It fails the Short Drive Self Test, but passes the Short Generic test, but won't start the Long Generic test.

Wow that is completely random. Sucks :/


Does this count as it being 'dead' and I can send it back (I still have warranty) or do I have to wait for it to completely die.
