well i had a problem, about a month ago, that my laptop didn't found my harddisk anymore, so it didn't boot. If i kept trying, it eventually worked afterall. Some messing in the bios solved it and i didn't had a problem with my hdd since then, but i'm not sure whether that problem is fully away, and won't return. Anyways, i'll have a checkdisk, but how do i do that in XP
. I'll post my processes in a moment.
