    Hi,i have a Sony Vaio VGN-NW20SF thats not very well.

    Afew weeks back i had an error msg come up saying that my HD was going to fail and i need to back up and replace, and a day later the laptop died so i got a new HD put it in and re'installed from my back up, started doing the updates only to get the the same error msg, now when i boot the laptop i get a msg saying S.M.A.R.T say my HD will fail and must backup press F1 to continue,it runs ok but on the desktop i get a msg from Intel storage thing saying i have a fault with my HD and need to back up so i press the reset drive bit and the laptops fine till the next time it comes up then repeat.

    Any one had this problem before and does any one have a fix for it..

    Thanks for any help... :D
