my pc is not working recently and i think it's the hd but maybe it's not...so first it was running fine, then it shut down a few times for no apparent reason. then it would start sometimes but freeze on the bootup screen sometimes too. so i figured i'd format but it won't let me format now, it gets a bit through and says it can't finish cause the disk may be corrupt or something. does that sound like a hd problem? thanks
