If your hard drive crashed and you need to fix the error to access your files again, you can use PC Tools to check and fix errors. Download PC Tools Performance Toolkit and install. Once installed, start PC Tools then go to “Recovery” tab and click “Repair Drives.” On the next screen, select the drive you want to check.
From the options, select “Surface Scan” and check “Perform on reboot.” Click “Start” then “Continue.” Exit PC Tools then restart the computer to begin the check. The checking will be quite long depending on the size of the drive and the extent of the problem. If bad sectors were found, try repeating the scan a second time.
Bad sectors are normal for hard drives like IDE and SATA and usually appear as the drive gets old. If bad sectors appear everywhere on the drive and the drive is quite old, it means you need to replace the hard drive with a new one.
