This topic is ment so you can tell your computer stories of someone who did.... For example: I years ago, when running win 98 happend to pull the plug on when running FDISK. It said "do not turn off your computer" well, pulling the plug didn't help. It was a sony labtop and when it booted, the middle of my drive was full of bad sectors. Everyting that accessed that portion of the disk caused the computer to freeze. For example: defrag, scan disk, formate, etc I prosponed the issue by splitting the drive up into three section(Windoes 1g, bad drive 6g, the rest 13g) Anyway, one day I used Shredder(Macaffee) and selected shredding the drive 21 times. A few hours later when I came back to the computer, the drive was fixed.
