I cant seem to be able to disable smart but I'm running some Smart tests and so far flying colors.
Also dled this bad boy for 145M and they claim it will boot ya so I guess i have to create disks.

SMART teats says drive is good. I just think some viris .exe f'd up my boot path again. Kind you get from sites. I dl one occasionally. dleted one from Program Files/Data the other day. But prob only got part.
An AVAST didnt do shit to stop it.
I need a disk to boot off. MUST have one around here.
