Did u try to start up your Pc with Start-up disc?Otherwise put a bad HD like master,then run applications like Disk Heakth etc,and see whats going on.Than first be sure that your hardware is good.Then u can with Partition magic check it,and see what the matter.Also try FitIT there are also tools for defrag.remember one thing.If your hardware is good,then its possible to everything.Good luck salu
