I want to install linux but consequently on the last step said i have a bad sector on my window partition because i required to steal 10 gbs to it and give them to the linux one , i want to massacre it or at least store it so i can install linux ubuntu, i tried the scandisk and check disk and they are still there,im thinking too of Low Level Format but i dont know how to do it and IF i do a backup of my background with Windows XP backup tool ,are the desperate sectors regenerate? Thanks, btw, my drive has smaller number than 5 months so time is not the problem but another drive is because i have no money
Answer:
Sorry mate but doomed to failure sectors on the disk are the first sign of trouble. Back your information up and replace the HD.. If you cannot do this then I would suggest installing the free journal of vmware and install redhat "Virtually" its a lot easier
