-=PCTechTalk=- Hard Disk Failure

Tammy,

I had hard drive failure on my old machine.  I would constantly get the
"kiss of death blue screen" saying that the system could not write to the
hard disk, although I would hear lots of noise as it tried.  Also, several
times on boot-up I would get the message that no hard drive was detected at
all.  If I rebooted a couple of times, it would come back.  I contacted the
manufacturer (under warranty) and had them ship me another one before it
went out completely.  I spent the waiting period backing up everything.

What are the signs of a failing hard drive. Mine hasn't been making any
strange noises, but has booted a few times now with a message about "Disk
Boot Failure, please insert system disk and restart." I am running windows
98SE.>>>
