[Solved] Need help with a "eMachines" E732z

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
A paying friend has asked to look at her "eMachine E372z"

The problem is, it is running very slow, loading windows takes like 15min.

So I have removed the HDD and ran Speedfan's SMART application, that showed a Read error failure.

Then I ran the Speedfan Online SMART function and it shows the same read error, saying 2 sectors are bad but they disk is all good still.

After installing the HDD in my sig rig, I preformed a Windows check disk on it, looking for and attempting to fix all bad sectors selected. To which it came back all good.

So I am in two mind if the HDD is the fault or is there something else to look at?

And no it is not overheating.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!!

Thanks a bunch thumb.gif

How old is it. The hdd may have been "fixed" but it could crap out again easily. My girlfriend used to be real bad about installing everything she saw. Check out what all is running on startup and such, is possibly a problem. Another thing, what is the speed of the hard drive... 5400 is obviously slower than one would like, isn't helping if it is.

I'm thinking either the drive is dying or she's got a mess of stuff installed that is clogging up the startup menu and therefore boot time.

Yeh I believe it is the HDD failing, it is the second she has had fail on her in a matter of two months mad.gif

Different machines, mind you.

Laptops need such careful handling, it is not worth the trouble for children to have them. IMO.

Might be worth it to stick an SSD in it. Should withstand a bit more shocks and such and will be massively faster. Bit expensive still but in the long run might be the way to go.

you do know that this could easily be a software issue right? lol. if its an old laptop its probably bloated down with crap. (i know how girls get with computers) and might just need the OS cleaned up or reinstalled.

I might have one in an old lappy sitting in the shed. I will have to see tomorrow. ( have no power in the shed, yet)

Would I have to install a new copy of windows? I believe I might have to.
