I just dled disk checkup today when I found it because I noticed that my 4 month old laptop has been going really slow since my reformat. What's been happening is the HD light keeps coming on every 2 seconds or so and I don't know why. I've tried closing all non-essential programs but there aren't many, since it was just reformatted. So, here are the results:
That's just the drive info, here are the scan results:
Notice the Reallocated Sector Count failed, I was wondering what might be the problem, I have been thinking that the best solution might just be to format again but I'm worried that won't do it and that there might be a simpler solution that I don't know about. Also just wondering what else looks to be a problem from these results, thanks for your help.
