Tried it today. The test was a fail. For this reason I think in unfair to review the software.

Hello,
The tool that you have used is from your hard disk manufacturer. If the test is fail then it seems like problem is with the hard disk. Do you have windows cd ?
Good Luck

Hello,
Try this 1
Open your CPU cabinet, check the hard disk data cable and also try connecting to another IDE\SATA slot.
Good Luck

well concidering that this happened after a wubi fail and the hard drive still shows up i doubt that that will solve anything. Thanks for the suggestion though
