Good morning,
I have just completed running hard drive diagnostics using Maxtor Powermax that concluded that my hard drive was failing and needed to be replaced.
Then ran Hard Drive Inspector that reported my hard drive had errors but was OK. I ran these in attempt to find out why my computer was shutting down repeatedly. Can someone help me with the apparent different conclusions with the diagnostics.
I am enclosing my system data obtained from Everest Thanks Ned
