Hello All,

I'm having troubles latelly with my computer.
K7S5A, Athon XP 1600+


First problem...I found my computer rebooted, passed BIOS displayed
information with the subject message

A disk read error occurred.
Press ctrl+alt+del to restart

I've tried FIXBOOT , CHRDSK /R from recovery console, nothing, first
of all takes very long to run and doesn't do any good.


Then I've made another HDD bootable, after 1 hour I had it, plug both
and the new XP tried to recover data. Well after some struggle and
research I get the process running and I let it over night.


I had to recover from on partition 3.7gb into a 3.8gb available space.

Everything seemed to go right, estimated 8 hours, went to bad happy!

Morning was a bad news, I found the 2nd HDD in the same state as the
first, not bootable.


These all makes me thing that there is a big problem in XP Pro in the
way it handles the out of space problems. It's scary if it's true!


Anyone has any similar story, anyone disagree with me ?


Thanks and looking forward to recover my data!

Regards,
MC
