i just checked me disks (old one)... using CHDSK

and... in C: the result shows this:

8193118 KB total disk space.
3751456 KB in 28381 files.
9432 KB in 2353 indexes.

0 KB in bad sectors.

Now.. that "0 KB in bad sectors"... came up !!!

*******************************************

in other partition... when i check " nothing with bad sector showed"

so... that means there is Bad sector in C: ?
(it's just that there is no, data in it? ) HELP !!!

I recently got bad sectors
I checked my HDD with 98's scandisk in DOS
just scan surface (say yes when scandisk finishes other scans)
probally i dont think it is bad sectors but just a way to write detail
