I've had this drive for 2+ years or so and since a half a year ago it started to go weird all of the sudden. The computer I'm currently repairing uses a P5PL2 v1.0 mobo from ASUS and is from my uncle. I needed to repair his PC and to my surprise it had no HDD so I took the "I-think-is-failing-HDD" in the hope it works on his mobo, so it did in Windows 7, but it crashed in a BSOD while updating and that shouldn't happen. I also tried Windows XP, but it leaves me with a lsass.exe problem when it's almost trying to finish the installation. So it's a no-go.
Is this drive failing on me? Are there any settings I need to adjust in the "P5PL2" BIOS to make it work properly? The bios version is from 2006, but it shouldn't give any problems.
Note: This HDD has been tested in 2 different computers and in both it acts weird.
Drive = Maxtor DiamondMax STM31000340AS 1TB
