    NHC says that S.M.A.R.T reported problem with hard disk 0 so I check the hard disk section of NHC abd click show HD SMART and it says there's an error. Below the error sign is power-on time count : 0 days, 0 hours and then says that direction value is 1. Should I change that value and to what value. Not even sure if that's the error or not. What should I do guys?

    Try changing the value to 1 and see if that works.

    1 is the default value. So I put 1 and still gives me the same error message.

    i know this is an old thread, but just a hint - use 10 or 0,1 and see if the time changes. if it does, that is it - status OK.

    NHC cannot read the up time correctly. It obviously calculates with this number.

    Cheers,
