1328782 2013-02-19 05:03:00 Good stuff, hopefully nothing vital on the bad sector. KarameaDave (15222)
1328783 2013-02-19 05:05:00 That'll do it, if Windows says it has a bad sector you can bet your boots theres more.

Just a suggestion - if you need to get any data off, do it asap, seen drives suddenly decide to die if all else fails and windows plays silly buggers, copy data off Via the Linux cd to an external drive.
