    Yet another pain in the with my laptop, recently apon booting my pc randomly decides that it wants to disk check, although cancelling the disk check countdown or even letting it run out, it most of the time just freezes, I took the hard drive out and reinserted it but again this didn't do anything at all. Has anyone had a problem like this? I ran the dell diagnostics and it reported an error with the hard drive (I think, not really skilled with that diagnostic tool)
