How old is your hard drive? Have you recently added extra memory?

ranger12002 · 10-31-2003, 04:36 PM

the hard drive is from 1998 fujitsu 3gb

no new memory either

I wonder if your hd is failing.

I've just been to Fujitsu's site - they are no help. Try Googling for your hard drive model to see if it's a common problem.
